In new book, author Kristin Hannah turns her focus to women who served as nurses in Vietnam

Kristin Hannah was in elementary and middle school during the Vietnam War. The father of one of her close girlfriends was a pilot whose plane was shot down, and Hannah started wearing his POW bracelet. The experience had a lasting impact on Hannah. More than five decades later, she has written “The Women,” a novel based on the war and the little-known stories of the more than 10,000 women who served as nurses.
