While others hid the horrors of war, her letters home confronted them head-on, revealing the brutal truth with unflinching honesty.
Bravery, compassion and the will to save lives motivated the young Nurse Helen Fairchild to leave home in Pennsylvania and embark on a journey to Europe, where she served as a surgical nurse during World War I before dying on the front lines.
