Most were the equivalent of second lieutenants, albeit with far lower pay, and were universally addressed as “Miss.”The majority had volunteered for the assignment, according to Elizabeth M. Norman, a professor of nursing history at New York University and author of “We Band of Angels: The Untold Story of American Nurses Trapped on Bataan by the Japanese.” Manila was considered the “pearl of the Orient,” and they expected to meet men and have fun.

Ruth Straub wrote in her diary (as excerpted by Norman). She “worked all night, hopped over banisters and slid under the hospital during raids.” Her fiancé, she would learn a week later, was killed in the attack. General Douglas Mac.

Arthur ordered a retreat to the inhospitable jungles of the Bataan Peninsula and the supposedly impregnable island of Corregidor at its tip.
