A book review of 'Guns and Brooches: Australian Army Nursing from the Boer War to the Gulf War' by Jan Bassett. More volunteer army nurses have come from rural Victoria than elsewhere in Australia. One hospital matron who volunteered for the front suring the Boer War wrote. "No one who has experience the satisfaction that arises from such work of this stature...ever cares to go back to the dill routine of earing a living in any othe the other spheres at present open to women." Not much seems to have changed by the Vietnam War. In an inquiry, in 1968, into why army nursing was failing to attract enough recruits, it was revealed that young nurses 'were disappointed at the lack of dramatic nursing opportunities.' Though a dense, turgid tome, the book educates on such things as the misery endured by many army nurses on return to Australia after the two World Wars, who tried to exist on their tiny gratuities only for many to fall into destitution and starvation. The nurses who joined up because they admired 'order and efficiency' soon found that the army is anything but. In WWI and WWII medical personnel were shipped to war zones without accompanying equipment.A newspaper clipping and a photocopy of it, consisting of title, five columns of text and a black and white photo (two photos on the photocopy).
