Synopsis
Lynda Van Devanter's memoir recounts her year as an Army nurse in Vietnam, starting in 1969, and the profound impact it had on her life. She details the harsh realities of war, the loss of innocence, and the daily struggle to save lives in challenging conditions. Returning home, Lynda faced a different kind of battle, grappling with isolation, anger, and the lasting effects of delayed stress syndrome, as she navigated a world that no longer felt like home.
