Vietnam Nurses with Dana Delany December 15, 2009
Eleanor Covan (North Carolina)
I am a professor of gerontology currently teaching a course on the impact of combat on aging Vietnam veterans. In addition to explaining the role of nurses in Vietnam, the interviews in this documentary shed light on the psychological trauma the nurses experience. The symptoms of combat induced PTSD as well as the resilience that many nurses experience are also documented. The film should be of interest to scholars studying trauma.

This was quite a remarkable set of true stories that involved women who you could hear see and feel what they had been through, the recognition that all these men and women deserved should have been given long ago. This was a great documentary movie, things like this should never be forgotten.

"Vietnam Nurses" is a well shot and well edited video that is a must see for nurses. This video was the idea of nurses...not producers and kudos go to their vision! Little attention has been paid to the sacrifices of nurses and other medical professionals during wartime and this video highlights their service, intelligence, bravery, caring, and the long-term impact of that service.

Thank you for this film. It's been a long road home from Da Nang and the smells, sights, sounds, and tears of the most terrible and most influential time in my life. None of us who served as Nam Nurses ever realized that our one year in SE Asia would in some ways consume and remain with us for the rest of our lives. I cannot, and will not, say I am at Peace with my "Tour"; but I have come to accept that as long as I can recall the funny/idiotic moments (and there were lots of them) more often than the gut-draining sorrow and exhaustion moments I will sleep better. From someone who was there, this film is worth watching and worth owning. didi-mau time. Over and out.

As a surviving combat Marine Grunt of the Viet Nam war, I want to laud this movie, that shows the very real part American nurses in Viet Nam played to support, not the war, but the soldiers and Marines who were wounded and med-evaced to an aid station, a surgical unit, or hospital ship. This was officially the first time American women served in a combat area where they could also be wounded or killed. They served, they treated and they provided for the wounded and the dying - not an easy challenge for the most hardened combat vet. Women in combat, especially these very brave women in Viet Nam, deserve all the credit they receive and more. There are many veterans today who give credit to their survival, not to the doctors, but to the American nurses who took care of them.
Semper Fi, nurses. You deserve much more than you received from that war.
