Chapter 23
November 1944
Hi Beat,
Darn! I so hoped that this Thanksgiving we could be thanking God that the war is finally over, and you and all the soldiers would be home or at least on their way. Gosh, it was so terrific to get your letter. I can’t imagine you, the most stylish among us, in ugly Army dungarees! Sure hope the guys you are helping appreciate what a special nurse they have.
I guess the war is heating up even more, if that’s possible. Johnny insists if it isn’t over by Christmas, young nurses will be “highly encouraged” to enlist. I love America, but I sure don’t want to be in the Army. Can you imagine me following some yelling sergeant after I finally got away from Gorgon?I can’t believe all the BS about those flight nurses who had to go back to school to keep their win
