Army Nurse, Lt. Beulah "Peggy" Greenwalt Walcher
Explore the World War II collection of Lt. Beulah “Peggy” Greenwalt, a nurse stationed at Sternberg Hospital in the Philippines when the Japanese began bombing on 8 December 1941. Along with her fellow nurses, she found herself practicing combat medicine in a war zone. While held as a prisoner of war at the Santo Tomas Internment Camp for nearly three years, Greenwalt was able to hide a camera and snapped some amazing photos of the ordeal. Eventually, all 77 nurses were liberated and became known as the Angels of Bataan.
