Betty May was a special person, some might describe her as mildly eccentric, but she had a heart of gold and an enormous capacity in sharing her thoughts with messages of support and sympathy to the wounded, sick and homesick. She would be in constant contact with 161 Bty especially during those times when it wasn't fashionable to support soldiers.
