Martha Gellhorn Gets Her Story on D-Day.

Martha Gellhorn, a famous journalist, stowed away on a hospital ship to cover the action on D-Day, writing a more compelling article than her husband, Ernest Hemingway. Gellhorn had initially been frustrated that Hemingway convinced her to return from covering the war to spend time with him in Cuba. However, she managed to make her way to England and eventually to the front lines of the invasion. Gellhorn's article, published in Collier's magazine, provided a deeper and broader account of the invasion than Hemingway's self-serving piece. She documented the work of doctors and nurses on board the hospital ship as they evacuated casualties from the battle. Despite facing challenges and being arrested by military police, Gellhorn's determination and courage allowed her to cover the war in her own unique way. [Extracted from the article]
