Flying Nightingales

Hi guys

In the news today are the long-forgotten 'Flying Nightingales' - the WAAF nurses who flew aboard Dakotas after D-Day to care for wounded soldiers during evacuation flights back to England - whose bravery is at last to be recognised.

Do we know if any of these nurses were lost to enemy action or flying accidents?

Cheers
Brian
