Mildred Smith Conaty
I joined the Cadet Nurse Corps at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut, in June 1945 and serviced until June 1948. Iwas sent to McCook Hospital for Communicable Diseases in Harford, Connecticut, where I served the last six months of my Cadet Corps time. After graduating I continued in nursing, serving several different hospitals in Connecticut, New Jersey, and Virginia until I retired from nursing in 1991 from Inova Fairfax Hospital in Virginia. I am 89 years old and enjoying my retirement. I support the U.S. Senate Bill S. 2507 U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps Equity Act.
