A moving and historically rich account of the women who served in the Voluntary Aid Detachments (VAD) and the Australian Army Medical Women’s Service (AAMWS) during World War II. Combining personal stories, photographs, official records, and firsthand experiences, the book highlights the courage, sacrifice, humour, and camaraderie of the women who worked in military hospitals and support roles across Australia, the Middle East, and the South West Pacific. Critch, herself a wartime servicewoman, preserves the important contributions of these often-overlooked Australian women while providing both historical insight and heartfelt human stories from the war years.
