One would see men lying helpless & the nurses would know that before many hours were up, the poor man would be dead & yet we could do nothing for them. Its awful to see such sights, the men crave for things which we are not allowed to give them for instance a man hit in the stomach will ask for water if given he will vomit up almost imediatly. Still I will not dwell on the sights one saw there. I had plenty of work to do & was kept busy. I had my blood tested to see if it was universal (fit for transfusion). The reply was yes so I had to wait for some poor man who wanted it, one came along badly wounded & lost a quanty of blood but the poor lad died whilst they were getting the table ready. I was given one bottle of stout.
