Brief description:
Cherry Ames, Whom readers loved in her student years, responds with unhesitating loyalty to the Army's Call for nurses. With her pals, Ann, Gwen and Vivian, young Dr. Lex Upham, who is romantically interested in the pretty young nurse, and her old friend Dr. Fortune, Cherry goes to a large Army post. Here she submits to the military discipline and training which are required of every Army Nurse. How she capably manages a ward of mischievous young soldiers; tries to reform Bunce, her irrepressible assistant; and, with her fellow nurses, carries on a lively feud with "Lovey," the tough sergeant, who regards all Women in the Army as intruders, nuisances and nitwits, is only the beginning of her Army adventures.
Sailing under sealed orders, Cherry finds herself in an exotic foreign port. She stumbles into a fantastic house and into a mystery which has far-reaching results. How Cherry recognizes and meets a strange danger — and how a great medical victory is achieved
through her courage, alertness and initiative — make absorbing and exciting reading.
Here is a fascinating, inspiring picture of the Army Nurse Corps, and a thrilling story about a brave, lovable girl.
