Queen Alexandras Royal Army Nursing Service as I believe it was called during WW2

There is a book about the QAs called SISTERS IN ARMS I can thoroughly recommed it
Additional information and corrections

the above should have included the medical staff attached to the Royal
Navy and the Royal Air Force that QARNNS and PMRAFNS
hopefully that covers everyone

On the question of the correct title of what is now QARANC
was Queen Alexandras Imperial Army Nursing Service during WW2
i believe it adopted its new title when it became part of the Regular
Army in 1949.
