It was launched at the Naval Military and Air Forces Club of WA where about 150 for war nurses attended. In his book, Rupert calls out Major-General Gordon Bennett to accept some blame for the terrible fate that befell the nurses in the fall of Singapore in February 1942. Bennett had refused to let tje nurses to pm January 20 because he said it was bad for civilian morale in Singapore, a decision that "undoubtedly cost many lives later'. Perhaps the most harrowing experience of an army nurse belongs to the nurses of World War 1. "There were 600 men and not one with a whole face," wrote Sister Gertrude Moberly. "some of them had had 13 operations."
