ToDarkToSleep...thank you

Age wise, I think I have a century on you...
so I've had more time to observe and absorb.

My friend, you are doing a good job of sharing with us. Your post about your pre-war feelings and expectations really touched my heart...
Generations apart, but we both had idealistic attitudes and determination, didn't we?
I was fresh out of the College of Nursing, Villa Nova...a young Catholic woman so intent on serving my country.
It was expected in my family...my father was career military.
I did not believe in the war, but I did believe it was my duty to be there as a nurse...and do the very best that I could.
Nothing prepares you for the reality and brutality of what is a near daily experience.

We paid our dues, didn't we?

In Peace
