When folks think about the people involved in wars, they usually think about the soldiers who fight the battles. Often forgotten are others in the war zones performing different, but still important, duties. "ANZAC Girls" tells rarely told true stories of nurses who served with the Australian Army Nursing Service during World War I. The tales describe nurses who rose to meet the challenges of their profession while witnessing the brutality and heroism associated with war. The series is based on Peter Rees' book "The Other Anzacs," in addition to diaries, letters, photographs and other historical documents.

ANZAC Girls has plenty of old-fashioned storytelling virtues as it introduces its crew of heroines, whose very presence in wartime is viewed with skepticism, amid suspicion of immorality at every swoony date or tryst. Go to Full Review
