Miss Margaret Irene Lang was appointed Matron-in -Chief and her staff's conditions in service were similar to those of the Australian Army Nursing Service. The nurses were originally attached to RAAF bases in Australia but later served in New Guinea and the Pacific Islands. With the Medical Air Evacuation Transport Unit (MAETU), established in 1944, nurses helped with aerial evacuation of casualties and were involved with the liberation of Prisoners of War from Singapore and other areas. The service was disbanded at the end of World War Two, but in 1948 a peace-time service was formed, and the RAAF nurses have served in the Korean War, the Malayan Emergency and the Vietnam War. They continue to care for the sick and injured at RAAF hospitals.

Front and spine of dust jacket has a black and white photograph: sick sisters on Lemnos. Title and authors name in black and red print on front and spinenon-fictionThis book investigates the contradictions, paradoxes and anomalies which have arisen for those assigned the role of army nurse. Financial discrimination saw the female captain in charge of an operating theatre in Vietnam being paid less than a male corporal working with her. Guns have replaced brooches as part of the nurses' uniform, as "total war" increasingly makes a mockery of the distinction between combatants and non-combatants.military nursing-australia, australian army nursing service, nurses, nursing
