Experiences at sea: a navy doctor at war / McEvoy, William P   Journal Article
McEvoy, William P Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This article identifies a significant hole in the literature of World War II. Few works discuss the everyday life of medical personnel and fewer still detail the lives of naval medical providers; those that do tend to focus on the exciting and bloody aspects of a medico at war. Filling this gap, this article argues that the most accurate picture of life at war should include life's routine features and then describes the everyday experiences of a U.S. Navy doctor in the Pacific from September 1944 to December 1945, whose daily existence was far different from and more typical than the one most often portrayed.
