Description
Here are the stories of the courageous young women who served as nurses at Pearl Harbor, Corregidor, Anzio, Battle of the Bulge, Iwo Jima, and other fighting fronts of the second World War.
Now illustrated entirely with photos from the war. See the second World War from the nurses' viewpoint: where they lived, where they worked and who they worked with. Of course you'll see the nurses themselves too!
As an intelligence officer with the Naval Air Corp, Wyatt Blassingame served on the islands of Tinian and Okinawa, earning a Bronze Star. He witnessed Army and Navy nurses at work while visiting wounded comrades in hospitals on Hawaii, Saipan, and Okinawa.
