Its headline figure, 1,000 graduate nurses a week, sets this poster apart from the many war posters on the board, since it asks for a specific number of women rather than general support. The catalog date of 1914 sits uneasily with the message, because the United States did not enter the war until April 1917. The appeal to "go over there" more likely belongs to the recruiting drives of 1917 and 1918, when the Army and the Red Cross were struggling to staff hospitals in France. Posters like this were pinned in schools, hospitals and train stations, presenting nursing as patriotic service for newly trained women.
