The Hospital in Rome

We moved, and we moved by big troop carriers to Rome. And we had the fascist officers training school for a hospital. We had a lot of German prisoners of war that were wounded and they were in the courtyard but they had their own orderlies and we were each given a medical orderly, German, and I was given one that I think must have been a medical student but I had some German but not enough to really, and he cried when he left because I'd been so good to him. He was very good, he looked after my patients very well. My he was a great help Then I was moved on to across to, just across the courtyard and two floors up to amputation, where they all had at least one leg amputated or two. They were all so young and they'd cry over their lost legs, you know.
