US Navy Nurse Corps — Index Cards
25 biographical service cards from the US Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED) History Office, one card per nurse, harvested from their Internet Archive collection. Includes members of the "Sacred Twenty" — the first female Navy nurses, appointed in 1908 (Esther V. Hasson, Lena S. Higbee, Elizabeth Hewitt, Della Knight, M. Estelle Hine, Mary Du Bose, Margaret Murray, Sara Cox, Sara Myer, Ada M. Pendleton, Florence T. Milburn, Clare L. De Ceu, J. Beatrice Bowman, Elisabeth Leonhardt, Victoria White, Ethel Parsons, Isabele R. Roy) — and later figures including Laura Cobb (WWII POW in the Philippines) and Theresa Burmeister (1918 influenza victim).
Each row pairs the full-resolution card scan with the Internet Archive's ABBYY OCR text and full provenance back to the source IA item.

How this was built
Part of an exploration of public archival index-card collections for GLAM/AI work. The reusable harvester (resumable per-item parquet shards, polite IA access, JP2 → JPEG decode via Pillow) runs on Hugging Face Jobs against a curated list of IA items.
The productive IA discovery query (generic full-text is too noisy — overwhelmed by playing cards / Pokémon cards / business cards):
title:"index cards" AND mediatype:texts
Each IA item bundles a _jp2.zip of all card scans plus ABBYY OCR derivatives, so
a single download yields both the images and weak text ground truth.
