Lest We Forget!

‘I shall never forget the shock when we saw the men arrive covered in blood, most of them with half their uniform shot or torn away. By night we had over 500 patients and only three nurses and two orderlies to cope with the work.’ - Alice Ross-King

‘I worked for 56 hours without a spell…I shall never forget the experiences of those days. The agonies of the poor fellows as they were lifted from the ambulances and also when their wounds were being dressed, were dreadful. I have been here ten weeks now but not till last week did I realise what war meant.’ - nurse Eileen Ferguson

‘Where there was life, there was hope, and we won.’ -Sister May Tilton, October 1917.

‘I have never regretted that I took the notion into my head to take on nursing, for it has opened up opportunities that I would never have had.’ - Sister Jessie Tomlins

Their sacrifice and experiences are unthinkable.

Their stories are unimaginable. They must never be forgotten.

During World War I, more than 2286 Australian nurses served abroad. Twenty-five died in service while 388 nurses were decorated for their courage. We recognise the nurses’ work and their sacrifice.

Lest we forget on ANZAC Day.
