She dealt with their injuries, serious and slight, every day. She wrote, “You GIs say we nurses rough it. We wade ankle deep in mud. You have to lie in it. We have a stove and coal … In comparison to the way you men are taking it we can’t complain, nor do we feel that bouquets are due us. It is to you we doff our helmets … It is a privilege to receive you and a great distinction to see you open your eyes and with that swell American grin, say, ‘Hi-ya, babe!”
