Mary Walker, a Woman Doctor, Wears What She Wants
Dr. Mary Walker was awarded a Medal of Honor for her bravery in service to her country as a surgeon. She made her own uniform with an officer's coat and the green sash of a surgeon. And she wore that medal every day until she died three years later, in 1917. Perhaps remember that when you throw on some shorts to go for a run or scrubs to remove a gallbladder.
