Frontier Nursing Service

A different Tim shared this great color photo of a nice CJ-3B that was used by the Frontier Nursing Service.

The Frontier Nursing Service was founded in 1925 by Mary Breckinridge and they were pretty amazing how they served rural Kentucky communities. Horses and eventually Jeeps were used extensively to support their outreach efforts.

The background of the service can be watched here it’s really an amazing story of how people coming together can make a huge impact for so many generations of families. Talk about Horse Power!
