But a girl . . . well, girls have a very special feeling about their faces. And when they brought the tall slender WD cor­ poral into hospital—one of the eight of twenty-seven left alive out of a flight that crashed between Vancouver and Prince Rupert— she was about the most unrecog­ nizable Airwoman still breathing in this country. They flew Helen—and Mary, an­ other WD with a badly burned back—-to Toronto’s Christie Street Military Hospital, for skin grafts, and burn treatment. A Red Cross worker told me she’d never forget it. The Red Cross room is in the heart of the wards, next door to the room those girls had. For weeks workers just tiptoed irk and out on their rounds—writing letters, supplying stamps, cigar­ ettes and chocolate bats to the patients. ‘IVo Visitors* One operation followed another through the weary months in which doctors built a new face for Helen and treated Mary’s back. The girls became great friends with the Red Cross workers. But they didn’t want to meet people from the 'outside’, right then. Even when the 'No Visitors’ sign went down and Air Force boys and other vet. patients wheel-chaired and crutch-tapped in, they were stiE shy about seeing 'just people’. The Red Cross was different. Those women in the deep blue smocks were part of their own submerged world of pain and ill­ ness, yet attached to the country outside. They did the little things the girls needed—feminine bits of shopping, letters and messages, planned small celebrations. New Trades Ns the girls progressed, going from one hospital to another for treat­ ment, the Red Cross was always there. Supplying ambulances, at first—later, escorts to hockey games, concerts, plays, Offering quiet practical assistance whenever it was needed, Today Helen and Mary are learn­ ing new trades. . Helen can no longer teach physical education or model. Mary cannot continue her typing, because of permanently stiffened fingers. But while DVA prepares them for their new lives, the Red Cross still stands by as they do with all our Canadian veterans in hospitals everywhere. Ip proof that we, the people, have not forgotten.
