"The riveting personal account of a Michigan nurse's experiences in France, Germany, and Africa during the Second World War. In late 1942, along with so many others who signed up to support the war effort, thirty-year-old Mildred Radawiec left a comfortable position as a nurse at the University of Michigan Hospital and postponed her marriage to a soon-to-be doctor to volunteer as a surgical nurse in the major battle theaters of the war. Radawiec was one of thirty volunteers from the hospital surgical staff that comprised the University of Michigan Unit, the 298th General Hospital, as the University of Michigan Hospital was called. This stirring personal account of war will mesmerize anyone interested in World War II history and women's too-often-overlooked role in it". [U Mich Press Review]. ; Signed by Author. Near Fine .
