Juanita Redmond Hipps

 * ... that the US Air Force Association's highest award for nursing is named in honor of Juanita Redmond Hipps? Source: "The Air Force Association has named its highest award in the field of nursing the Juanita Redmond Award" (p89)
 * ALT1:... that US Army nurse Juanita Redmond Hipps' bestselling autobiographical book helped inspire the 1943 war movie So Proudly We Hail!? [https://www.nytimes.com/1979/03/01/archives/col-juanita-redmond-hipps-66-nurse-on-bataan-in-world-war-ii.html "Colonel Hipps, then Lieut. Juanita Redmond, was author of the book, “I Served on Bataan.” It became a bestseller in 1943 and served as the background for the war movie “So Proudly We Hail,” the story of Army nurses."

 * Symbol question.svg Job very well done! Well-sourced entry, interesting hooks (I like the original but the second works too!), clears copyvio, long enough, new enough. I found a picture on the Commons; what would you think of adding it to the DYK, ? E.g.
 * ALT1:... that the US Air Force Association's highest award for nursing is named in honor of Juanita Redmond Hipps (pictured on the left in 1945)?
 * Hm, realizing I'm not sure how to add the file to this template post facto, but perhaps someone promoting the entry can help. Here's the file. Army nurses rescued from Santo Tomas 1945e.jpg The caption would be something like, "Juanita Redmond, left, in 1945".
 * And then the entry just needs a QPQ. Thanks! Innisfree987 (talk) 18:32, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review Innisfree987 and good work sourcing a photo - the promoter will be able to add it to the queue template if they want to use it. I will look to sort out a QPQ as soon as possible, cheers - Dumelow (talk) 19:10, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Innisfree987, I have now carried out a QPQ review at Template:Did you know nominations/Frederick Gilbreath - Dumelow (talk) 13:47, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Super, thank you! I'm ticking off the entry as a whole and will let the promoter choose a hook, because both are interesting and verified, and I'm realizing that while I like ALT0, if the promoter wants to use the image, for historical accuracy it might be better to go with the ALT1, lest it seem like the photo depicts the award referenced in ALT0 (as you know, it does not). But in any case, good to go! Innisfree987 (talk) 15:25, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
