In the early morning hours of June 8, 1969, a Soviet-built 122mm rocket slammed into Ward 4 of the 312th Evacuation Hospital in Chu Lai, Republic of South Vietnam. Lt. Sharon A. Lane?an attractive 24-year-old nurse from Canton, Ohio?died instantly. Though seven other American military nurses lost their lives serving in Vietnam, Lt. Lane was the only American servicewoman killed as a direct result of enemy fire during the war. Her life and untimely death have come to epitomize the duty, honor, and sacrifice of nearly 11,000 American military and naval nurses who served their country during the Vietnam era. Hostile Fire is based on extensive interviews with veterans, family, and friends; a review of official records; and Lt. Lane's personal letters home, carefully preserved by her family. Author Philip Bigler chronicles Lt. Lane's life from childhood to her death in Vietnam, portraying a vibrant and dedicated young woman killed just as her adult life was beginning. Set against the historical and political context of the era, the story offers readers a powerful, personal view of Vietnam and those who served. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1775692794617

Sharon Ann Lane (July 7, 1943 - June 8, 1969) was a United States Army nurse and the only American servicewoman killed as a direct result of enemy fire in the Vietnam War. The Army posthumously awarded Lane the Bronze Star Medal for heroism on June 8, 1969. In 1969, Lane was named Outstanding Army Nurse of the Year by the National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution. In 1973, a life-size bronze statue of Lane was dedicated at Aultman Hospital School of Nursing's courtyard (moved later to the building's entrance) in Canton, Ohio. In 1986, the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 199 in Canton, Ohio, was named the Sharon Lane Memorial Chapter. During the early morning hours of June 8, 1969, a Soviet-built 122-mm rocket slammed into ward 4 of the 312th Evacuation Hospital in Chu Lai, Vietnam. Lt. Sharon A. Lane, a young, attractive 24-year old nurse from Canton, Ohio, died instantly. Though seven other American military nurses lost their lives serving in Vietnam, Lt. Lane was the only American servicewoman killed as a direct result of enemy fire throughout the war. Her life and untimely death, have come to epitomize the duty, honor, and sacrifice of the almost 11,000 American military and naval nurses who served their country during the Vietnam era. Under Fire is based on extensive interviews with veterans, family and friends. a review of official records; and Lt. Lane's own letters home which were carefully preserved by her family. Author Philip Bigler carefully chronicles Lt. Lane's life from early childhood to her untimely death in Vietnam. He paints a picture of a vibrant and dedicated young woman, tragically killed just as her adult life was beginning. The story, skillfully placed within the historical and political context of the period, provides readers with a powerful and personal look at Vietnam and those who served. From a Publishers Weekly review: Bigler pays tribute to Lane in this careful, vigorously researched examination of her life and of the events leading to her untimely death.
