Summary
As a nurse working in the military hospitals in the south of England, Kitty sees at close hand the effects of war - notably the casualties of Dunkirk. The diary details the historical events and describes the day to day life of a young VAD in a military hospital in WWII. It's also a story about growing up. A girl transposed from a comfortable protected existence into the harsher world of a wartime hospital begins to learn a bit about life and relationships.
