One of our favorite topics to talk about on this show is history. The Angels of Bataan were Navy and Army Nurse Corps members who were stationed in the Philippines during the outbreak of World War II.
These nurses face some of the most grueling conditions of the war.
some even being captured and held, His POWs are the Japanese. Here's our regular contributor, Ann Claire. with the story of one of them. Nursing was not a career for a nice unmarried girl in the 1930s. After all, it was dirty physical work, and it required learning far too much information about the opposite sex.
However, it was also one of the few opportunities for a young woman who couldn't afford college to continue her education. in the Depression era United States. The 16 cents an hour a hospital paid wasn't bad either. Georgia-born Frances Nash was one of the many young women who ignored social stigma and joined the Army Nurse Corps. Nash was given the relative rank of lieutenant, meaning she didn't undergo military training and didn't rank a salute or full pay.
She didn't even have an official uniform, just insignia to wear on the collar of her white civilian nurse's dress.
However, she did have the opportunity to volunteer for service overseas. In 1940, Nash volunteered for a two-year tour in the Philippines. Stirrings of war on the horizon concerned her family and friends. Was now really a good time to go abroad? Nash responded to the effect that, if war were coming, the Philippines would be where nurses were needed.
She wasn't the only one who thought so. the United States' preparations for war were slow and incomplete. but they had already begun increasing the medical staff of the six Philippine military hospitals. five army and one navy. doubling the complement of nursing staff.
On Monday, December 8th. nineteen forty one. which would be December 7th back in the United States on the other side of the international dateline. Nash and her fellow nurses awoke to news of the attacks on Pearl Harbor. Three hours later, the first Japanese planes struck the Philippines.
Within two weeks Japanese forces landed, General MacArthur removed to Corrigor, and the evacuation of U.S. and Filipino forces to the Bataan Peninsula began. On Christmas Eve, Lieutenant Nash's evacuation preparations were interrupted. Her commanding officer, Colonel JW Duckworth, called her in. He told her that she would be expected to remain behind in Manila until all of the staff and supplies were evacuated from the hospital.
She was also told to prepare herself to be taken prisoner. She spent her Christmas day working in surgery and burning documents. That night she was evacuated by boat, the waters lit by blazing buildings on the land and ships in the harbor. Eventually, after some time spent in foxholes and fleeing through the jungle, Nash arrived to serve in hospital number one on the Bataan Peninsula. The most forward of the hospitals.
She and the other medical staff worked through the long, disheartening struggle to hold Battan. struggling to save lives. Not all of her patients were American or Filipino. At times, medics would bring wounded Japanese into the surgery. Many of them wore items they'd taken from American troops as spoils of war.
The Japanese had not signed the Geneva Convention, which declared medical facilities off-limits as military targets. and Nash's hospital suffered for it. after an attack on the sixth of April. Of one thousand six hundred beds, only sixty five were left standing. Three days later, the remaining defenders of Bataan surrendered.
A month later General Wainwright surrendered Corrigodor. Along with the thousands of U.S. and Filipino troops who surrendered, More than sixty nurses, including Nash, were taken as prisoners of war. For years of captivity. Nash and the other nurses would continue to care for the wounded, and for the sick.
Nursing may not have been considered a nice profession in polite society. But, as the monument on Corrigidor, which commemorates the service of Nash and her fellow nurses shows, in the eyes of some they were far more than nice. They were angelic. The inscription reads In honor of the valiant American military women who gave so much of themselves in the early days of World War II. They provided care and comfort to the gallant defenders of Bataan and Corrigodor.
They lived on a starvation diet. shared the bombing, strafing, sniping, sickness, and disease. while working endless hours of heartbreaking duty. these nurses always had a smile, a tender touch, and a kind word for their patients. they truly earned the name.

of Frances Nash. She volunteered for service overseas. A two-year tour of duty in the Philippines starting in 1940. There's probably no tougher place to be in the world. than the place she ended up being in.
By December of 1941, just hours after Pearl Harbor was attacked. In came the Japanese. into Manila. and into the Philippines. And from there became a POW.
And this is the work. And the duty and the service that so many of our women showed during World War II, and we showcase those stories.
