HPV vaccination is not required for US military service, and Soldiers' uptake is low. We trained nursing staff at a large military clinic to recommend HPV vaccine to Soldiers using a nursing education intervention to integrate HPV vaccination into routine care for active duty Soldiers. Our findings suggest that training nursing staff to recommend and administer HPV vaccines to Soldiers is feasible and low cost, and may warrant wider-scale testing as a strategy for increasing military readiness and protecting Soldiers from HPV-attributable cancers. Until guideline and policy changes are implemented and HPV vaccine is required for military service, use of education strategies is one path to increasing HPV vaccine coverage among Soldiers to ensure protection from HPV-related diseases.
