I have to mention as an R/N I am in awe of this lady. I can't imagine the horrors she saw in war but rose above it to save countless lives. I have attached wikipedia link for those interested.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_Kendeigh

Attached photo title, April 1945: Ensign Jane "Candy" Kendeigh was the first flight nurse to arrive on Iwo Jima and, later, Okinawa. She was a pioneer of air evacuation, which saved more than 1 million wounded men during the war.


Thank you Sam and that you for being such a beautiful nurse and your service to the sick.
