'We were quickly learning to live with war. We became very proficient at moving the patients who could walk quickly to the shelters when the sirens went. We were equally proficient at talking those who couldn't walk into believing that they would be safe where they were. Some believed us others didn't.' Surprising Matron as well as herself Evelyn Prentis managed to pass her Finals and become a staff-nurse. Encouraged she took the brave leap of moving from Nottingham to London - brave not least because war was about to break. Not only did the nurses have to cope with stray bombs and influxes of patients from as far away Dunkirk but there were also RAF men stationed nearby - which caused considerable entertainment and disappointment and a good number of marriages...But despite all the disruption to the hospital routine Evelyn's warm and compelling account of a nurse in action shows a nurse's life would always revolve around the comforting discomfort of porridge and rissoles bandages and bedpans.
