Branda BcBryde's remarkable account of her experiences as a nurse in the Second World War.

Her uniquely moving story began on the eve of World War II when Branda McBryde enrolled as a trainee nurse at the Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle. The next six years saw Sister McBryde nursing civlians through the Blitz, volunteering for service in the Maxillo-Facial ("Max-Factor") plastic surgery unit, joining the troops in the early days following the D-Day landings, and serving in the Field Hospitals in the front line of fighting. Then, as the drew to a close, she faced the greatest challenge of her career, the restoration to health and sanity of Germany's concentration camp victims.
