title: U.S. Army/Texas Wesleyan University program in anesthesia nursing.
abstract: The U.S. Army's two-phase program for training nurse anesthetists came about in response to the demand for nurse anesthetists to serve in Vietnam. It fostered a move toward nurse anesthesia education at the master's degree level and upgraded the requirements for attaining such a degree.
