WWII Cadet Nurse Corps Service Recognized: Eligibility for Burial Benefits.

This law officially honors individuals who served in the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps during World War II (1943-1948). While not granting full veteran status benefits, their service will be considered active duty for specific burial and memorial entitlements. This means eligible individuals and their families can receive government-provided headstones and markers.
