'Moving, inspiring, superbly told. The hellishness of war was never more stark' Andrew Roberts, Daily Telegraph'MEDIC! WE NEED A MEDIC OVER HERE! NOW!'Doctors, nurses, medics and stretcher bearers go where the bullets are thickest, through bomb alleys and mine fields, ducking mortars and rockets, wherever someone is injured and the cry for assistance goes up. Their job is to put themselves in the heart of danger - to run into battle to rescue the wounded and to risk their own lives to save the dying.This is the story of those brave men - and, increasingly in this day and age, women - who go to war armed with bandages not bombs, scalpels not swords, and put saving life above taking life. Many have died in the process, the ultimate sacrifice for others to ensure that when the cry of 'Medic!' is heard, it will be answered. Regardless of the cost.From the beaches of Dunkirk to the desert towns of Afghanistan, there can be no nobler cause.[thumbnails of authors' other titles]
