Description
Publisher's Description of Angels of Bataan and Corregidor: Heroic Nurses of World War II (Women Warriors of World War II)
Soon after the
Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, they also attacked
U.S. military installations in the Philippines. For the army and navy
nurses stationed there, what had been a peaceful outpost quickly turned
into a raging war zone. When the U.S. and Philippine forces retreated to
the Bataan Peninsula and the fortress island of Corregidor, the nurses
followed them to the field hospitals to care for the wounded.
Persevering through enemy assault and imprisonment, these heroic women
became angels of mercy amid the war in the Pacific.
