Quotes by Elizabeth M. Norman (?)

“IN OBVIOUS WAYS the work of war is easy, “kill or be killed.” Survival, however, is another matter, much more difficult, for it requires an endurance, a cunning and a strength of will that fighting does not.”
― Elizabeth M. Norman, We Band of Angels: The Untold Story of American Nurses Trapped on Bataan by the Japanese

“Teaching and office work held little appeal—the former meant taking care of someone else’s children, the latter someone else’s man—so they entered the only other profession open to them, nursing. After”

“On Thursday, March 26, as the assault continued and as his troops wasted away, General MacArthur, safely in Australia, received the Congressional Medal of Honor from the U.S. minister there. General Wainwright, learning of the news, radioed his congratulations from Corregidor, even as the bombs were falling on top of him. He also reported on the desperate state of his supplies.”
