Oh, Oh, Oh, It’s a Lovely War: Gladys Matheson’s Memories as a Nursing Sister
Preserved at the Provincial Archives are wartime records created by Gladys Matheson, a Nursing Sister with the Canadian Army Medical Corps (CAMC) during the First World War. The exhibit “Oh, Oh, Oh, It’s a Lovely War: Gladys Matheson’s Memories as a Nursing Sister” shares a selection of these wartime records including photographs, diary entries, autograph book sketches, and sound recordings. The exhibit can be viewed in-person at the Provincial Archives’ Reading Room located in Regina at 2440 Broad Street.
Interested in learning more about the history of Nursing Sisters of the First World War as well as Gladys Matheson and her wartime records? Take some time to watch a recording of a Nursing Sisters of the First World War presentation that took place in early November, now available on our YouTube channel.
