Annie Fox (nurse)
text:
Maj. Annie G. Fox was a Canadian-born American, the first woman to receive the Purple Heart for combat. She served as the chief nurse in the Army Nurse Corps at Hickam Field during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, on December 7, 1941. At that time the awarding of the Purple Heart did not require the service member to be injured. The requirements were changed after the attack of Pearl Harbor and Fox was then awarded the Bronze Star because she was not wounded in the attack.
