Cherry Ames is back, just as you remember her! The books are just as you remember them, retaining the same look, feel, and sense of adventure and patriotism as when they were first published. With fully illustrated color covers and a soft-finished hardcover format just like the originals, these books will transport you back to the days when you were reading about this spunky young nurse. Series editor and registered nurse Harriet Forman was inspired by, and remains a devoted fan of, Cherry Ames: "...I was going to follow in her footsteps and become a nurse--nothing else would do."
The United States is still fighting World War II. Cherry Ames is still an Army Nurse, this time aloft--as a flight nurse. Cherry is reunited with her corpsman Bunce--the two of them are in sole charge of ferrying severely wounded men out of the battlefield and to the nearest Army hospital. Much to Pilot Wade Cooper's chagrin, he has been taken off bomber duty to fly the wounded to safety--until Cherry makes him see otherwise. Off duty, the nurses "adopt" 6-year-old Muriel Grainger, who has known nothing but war in her short life, and whose mother has been killed by the Germans. Her father is often out on mysterious errands that cause some to label him a "spy." Cherry makes it her risky business to find out if this is truth or rumor.

Cherry Ames, Flight Nurse
Cherry Ames, Flight Nurse is the fifth book in the Cherry Ames series. This particular book is by Helen Wells.
I liked this adaptation to the series. I found it kept my attention better than the last book did.
I know the mysteries in each book are there to give it a bit of a plot, but I agree with another reviewer who said Cherry should just stick to her nursing duties. The mysteries feel out-of-place. The series is called "Cherry Ames NURSE Stories", not "Cherry Ames Nursing and-detecting-on-the-side Stories".
Even though Mark was eventually innocent, I doubt that Cherry would still go unpunished. She let a random "civilian" on board, and he didn't have proper identification. what if he was a spy? what then? Does her letting him on a plane and him just happening to NOT be a spy suddenly clear her if the huge risk she took? I don't think so!!!
Okay, sorry. Rant over.
I liked the descriptions of the suspenseful flights Cherry went on. I also enjoyed the impromptu army wedding that was held.
3.5 stars out of 5.
