00:00The Full Story of the Nurse Who Wrote the Names of the Fallen in Normandy
00:04An image is circulating widely on social media
00:11claiming to show an Allied Forces World War II nurse
00:14taking the names of soldiers who died during the D-Day landings in Normandy in France.
00:19The picture is typically shared with captions saying that the men were buried in makeshift graves
00:24on Omaha Beach before proper cemeteries were built
00:26and that nurse Clara Thompson wrote down the names of each soldier that she tended to.
00:31Her notebook was supposedly found decades later in her daughter's attic.
00:35The images appeared all over Facebook and X
00:38but the story has been fabricated with the picture having the hallmarks of being AI generated.
00:43The Allies established eight military cemeteries within four days of the D-Day landings
00:47on the 6th of June 1944
00:49with the first American and British nurses arriving on the 10th and 12th of June respectively.
00:55In the picture, the alleged nurse is not wearing an accurate uniform.
00:59A full archive show that army nurses serving in Normandy
01:02wore much different attire to what is depicted here.
01:05More than 4,000 Allied soldiers died on D-Day
01:08with the landings eventually leading to the liberation of France
01:12and subsequently the rest of Europe.
01:14It ultimately paved the way to an Allied victory against Nazi Germany
01:18which surrendered in May 1945.
