WW2 Nurse: "They Took Their Bloody Time, Didn’t They?"

That was the reaction of Dame Augusta Chiwy,* a civilian nurse in Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge, upon having her bravery formerly recognized by the 101st Airborne (she was awarded the Department of the Army Civilian Award for Humanitarian Service). Among her other actions, she accompanied an American Army doctor to the front lines to assist in retrieving wounded soldiers.

My father-in-law was there; got his hair trimmed by a track on a tank that almost crushed his head.
