When Duty Calls: A Nation's Forgotten Heroines
In the shadow of the Vietnam War, a generation of American women answered their country's call, only to return to a nation that denied their very existence in the conflict. Twenty-year-old Frances "Frankie" McGrath embodies this forgotten history. Raised in privilege on California's Coronado Island in 1966, Frankie's comfortable life revolves around nursing school and her close-knit family, especially her beloved brother Finley. When he enlists in the Navy and ships out to Vietnam, Frankie's world begins to expand beyond the traditional expectations placed on women of her era. A chance encounter with a wounded soldier-saved by a nurse at the Twelfth Evac Hospital in Vietnam-ignites something in her. Could she make a difference too? Could women truly be heroes? Tragedy strikes when naval officers arrive with news of Finley's death in combat. Standing on the beach where they once played as children, Frankie's mother begs her not to enlist, but Frankie's mind is made up. "I can't undo it," she explains, torn between family loyalty and a growing sense of purpose. Her mother's parting words-"Those were your brother's last words to me"-haunt Frankie as she prepares to enter a world that will forever change her. What begins as an idealistic mission to honor her brother transforms into a journey through trauma, resilience, and the fight for recognition that thousands of real women veterans would face for decades to come.
