While in college, Peggy Kelly attended every peace march and anti-war protest she could. A history and political science major, Kelly understood the complex history of Vietnam and the war the United States was waging. However, Kelly longed for adventure, so she joined the American Red Cross Donut Dollies program. When she received orders to go to Vietnam, she was ready for the experience of a lifetime and to help the enlisted soldiers. As a Donut Dolly, Kelly flew on helicopters, meeting men on fire bases and in heavy combat, and provided some comedic relief and a touch of home. Kelly reflects on interacting with the men, forming deep relationships with the other women, and her long career as a Red Cross volunteer.
