just finished today.
i should of been cleaning or finishing up office work but i had to continue
on this journey with my American nurses to see what happened to them in
this moving historical book.
{read chapter one here.}
this story is told from the American nurses of war who were stationed
in the Philippines at the start of the pacific war in 1941 who
became prisoners of war y the Japanese in manila
till their release in 1945.
they were angels.
they were fierce.
they were strong, intelligent women who
survived conditions that would have eaten me alive.
they were brave.
they were determined.
they were American nurses.
