Description

She Was An American Combat Nurse During WW II by Jeane Slone Grady Hospital, Georgia 1941. Meet Beatrice Harrington, Chief of Nursing in the White section and Dora Mae Williams, Chief of Nursing in the Black section. Because of segregation during this time, these two exceptional nurses never meet in person, although they share similar career paths. War is ravaging Europe and racial discrimination is rampant in the U.S. Both nurses join the Army Nurse Corps and work in jungle hospitals-Bea in Baguio, Philippines providence of Bataan and Dottie in Tagap, Burma. Through opposing chapters, this historical book allows readers to compare and contrast the experiences of these two strong, dedicated, and skilled nurses in the face of combat danger, human suffering, and discrimination. With fortitude and personal resilience, each nurse displays unsurpassed courage amid lethal combat conditions. This book portrays keen historical depictions of the era with narrative and photographs that deftly convey the experience and impact of segregation both in general society and in the Armed Forces. The strength and dedication of these two extraordinary nurses and the nurses under their command will inspire, educate, and leave an indelible impression on the reader.
