losing someone is one thing. losing someone that you don’t think you ever had is an entirely different matter entirely. but losing someone you never had, only to see them again two years deep into a war tearing the world apart? it’s the worst luck of the most terrible draw. and it’s the only lot that Ronald Speirs seemed to pull.

OR . . . in which Daisy Clarke sees Ronald Speirs again in Europe, after completely disappearing on him a year into his military training.

a slow-burn Ronald Speirs-centric fanfiction FEATURING : childhood friends-to-strangers-to-lovers, “what if they made nurses into combat medics?”, alongside triggering topics such as violence, death, war, etc. chapters will be organized in two categories : THE PAST ( those which take place before the invasion of Normandy ) and THE PRESENT ( those which take place on D-Day and thereafter ).

Please forgive any historical & military inaccuracies — however there will be references to stories of the 128th Evacuation Hospital told from the U.S Army Nurse memoirs And If I Perish, which i have used to gain better understanding of what it was like to be a nurse serving in Europe and North Africa specifically. I am not writing about the real life Ronald Speirs, I am writing the fictional portrayal featured in Band of Brothers.
