@alixxx.1872: soldiers called during the world wars the nurses momor mummy, because nurses represented safety, care, and home in a place where all of those things were missing. #soldierboy #ww1 #ww2 #historylovers #historytok

Heres a little quote I made about this (I cried writing this) 'The soldier boy wept for his mother as the nurse brushed his hair with her hand and said "I'm here now" That soldier was only just a child who needed his mother, and the nurse who wasn't even a week older than him needed her mother too.'

The soldiers used to call the nurses "mom" but the phrase "momy, I'm scared" will never leave my head
