Abstract
W E HAVE always maintained that where the man nurse is best known there he receives the greatest recognition and the widest opportunities for constructive service. Nowhere in the nursing world does the man nurse receive the recognition nor have the opportunities that are afforded him in the United States Naval Service. J. Beatrice Bowman, Superintendent of the Navy Nurse Corps, in an article in the American Journal of Nursing, has given us a splendid picture of the work being done by the men nurses in the units under her command.' But what a contrast we find here in our own state! Miss Bowman has told us that there are 3,765 corpsmen to serve a navy of 76,000, while in New York State we have only 429 registered men to serve a male population of over 6,000,000; or 1 registered man to each 14,600 of male population.
