Summary:
"Eighteen nurses who served in the United States military nurse corps present their personal accounts in this book. They represent all military branches and both genders. They speak of patriotism, belief in a greater power, the gaining of knowledge about the nursing profession and themselves, of persecution and discrimination, of travel and the adventure of friendship and love"--Provided by publisher.
