“One of the most strikingly successful appeals was made directly to the medical profession itself in its journal, the “Lancet,” and in response to it hundreds and hundreds of physicians, surgeons and nurses sent in cases of equipment and instruments, anything useful that they could possibly spare from their professional kit. One rather touching fact here is that many refugee doctors, who are not allowed to practise in Britain because they aren’t qualified to do so here, but who had kept their instruments in the hope of using them again somewhere after the war, sent in those instruments as a self-sacrificing tribute to dur Russian allies.” —J. B. Priestley in the 8.8. C. series, “Britain Speaks.”
