Fanny goes to war

A first-person memoir by a volunteer member of a women's medical and transport corps during the First World War, recounting training and camp life, journeys to the front, and work behind the trenches and in casualty clearing stations. It describes ambulance and convoy duties, nursing in typhoid and other wards, responses to raids and bombardment, and the improvisations required by relentless logistical and medical challenges. Interspersed reflections emphasize camaraderie, discipline, and resourcefulness, while candidly conveying the emotional strain of tending the wounded, the routine of hospitals and convalescence, and the transition back to peacetime life.
