What led to the acceptance of women serving as military nurses during the civil war?

History

Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
4 0
Women gained acceptance as battlefield nurses during the Civil War due to the sheer need for people to help. So many men were out fighting and dying that the usual decorum of "where a woman's place was" became secondary to the needs of the cause of both the Union and Confederacy. Women initially were not allowed on the battlefield, but only to help at hospitals away from the lines. As the war waged on and the need rose, anyone with any kind of training was plunged into service anywhere it was needed.

Explain how, although it wiped-out over 200,000 mostly-innocent people, dropping the Atomic Bomb on Japan can be viewed as a GOO
snow_tiger [21]

Well.... The only GOOD thing to come out of the Atomic Bombs dropped on Japan was that it ended the war in the Pacific, and WWII as a whole.

After Germany surrendered on May 7th, 1945, the Japanese were frankly disgusted. They said that Germany should have fought to the last man and last bullet before laying down their arms. To the Japanese, to surrender willing was a cowardly disgrace, and was the reason for many of the kamikaze attacks on U.S. ships. It was also the reason why Japanese pilots carried pistols in their planes because if they were shot down and just so happened to survive, they needed to kill themselves instead of having the humiliation of being captured.

So, Japan made it very clear that unlike Germany, they would fight tooth and nail till the very end. At the time, the U.S. saw the Atomic Bomb as a cheaper alternative to losing men and equipment in a seemingly never-ending battle against the Japanese Empire.
