women were nurses in world war 1. unfortunely there was few hospital tents and nurses were unable to help many people. injured bodies tragically died under the heat or cold of the weather. these bodies rotted on the hot sand but the surroundings made it hard for their bodies to be buried. Few nurses died but some did in explosions or gun shooting.
Women also supported their husbands, sons, brothers and other family members and friends. This wasn't much nor was it fighting but men felt loved and faught for these women.
