This paper is a description and analysis of several Canadian Army Medical Corps nurses’ travel discourses from their diaries and letters while they vacationed off duty in Europe, England and the Mediterranean. What difference did it make to their travel experiences that they were nurses? Did they enlist because they wanted to travel? Were they different from civilian women’s travel discourses of the time?
