Dear mother and father,
My life as a nurse during the World War 1 has been difficult to deal with. I feel so much frustration and pity towards these wounded soldiers. The wounds are awful, nothing like I what I saw back at home. 10-12% of the soldiers are dead due to Gas Gangrene, a bacteria that is caused by anaerobic bacteria which grows with oxygen. The deaths are because of this some kind of weapon the Germans are using, Mustard Gas and Chlorine Gas. Oh poor soldiers, having to return back home with awful scars or without arms or legs. However most of the sick ones are due to them becoming ill, cases like Influenza and Gonorrhea. One soldier whom my nurse friend treated is said to be transferred to an institution due to emotional trauma, Shellshock. This new threat, called a tank, "mechanical monster" as most people would call it. Not only do I feel frustrated, but now I'm worried about our safety as nurses.
With much love,
Norma Martinez
