Army Nurse Leila Morrison arrived on the beaches of Normandy days after D-Day with just a duffle bag. She worked directly behind the front lines, saving the lives of "her boys."
Years later, Leila would say of her experience:
"As we walked in that sand at Normandy, I couldn’t help but think of all the boys, young boys that had given their lives, and I just felt like I was on sacred land walking across where those fellas had walked and given their all.”
Leila passed away a week after turning 100.
God Bless this Greatest Generation hero!
