Not a movie stuff, still worth reading!

“An eighteen year old boy is carried into the shock ward, and he looks up at me trustingly asking, “How am I doing, nurse?”
I just kiss his forehead and say, “You are doing just fine soldier.” He smiles sweetly and says, “I was just checking,” then he dies. We all cry in private. But not in front of the boys. Never in front of the boys.” - June Wandrey
June Wandrey Mann (1920–2005) was a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps from Wautoma, Wisconsin. She was the author of Bedpan Commando, an account of her military service in Africa, Sicily, Italy, France and Germany from 1942 to 1946, during which she was awarded eight battle stars.

Tom, I´d cried. But wouldn´t have told the truth, either.
A caring and lovely woman.
Yes,I love how easy it is these days to learn all this!
Those nurses all did wonderful work comforting the injured and dying, many of whom were far too young to be fighting in wars.
I enjoyed both of these story posts today Iris. I'd be nervous to see that Phantom Engineer. Hope it was a good day. hugs-Erika
