As you know, CRNA/nurse anesthesiologists have served with honor in significant roles across all branches of the U.S. military.
For more than four decades, an AANA resolution recognized members who served in the military. In August 2025, the membership approved removing that language from the resolutions document and instead creating a page on AANA.com honoring military CRNA/nurse anesthesiologists.
The new Military recognition page is now live: https://www.aana.com/membership/in-service-to-our-country/
The page has been initially populated with photos and information about the military members of the AANA Board of Directors. The AANA now invites interested military CRNA/nurse anesthesiologists (active or retired) to submit a military photo along with your name, title, service dates, and a brief description, if desired.
Please use the link above for additional information on how to submit your materials.
Thank you for your service.
