Soon one of the girls falters, and Bee and Pauline receive a new posting to a Northumberland dairy farm. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Based on Barbara Whitton's own wartime experiences, \u003ci\u003eGreen Hands \u003c\/i\u003edetails life for Britain's women volunteers, illuminating their friendships, daily struggles, and romantic intrigues with intimacy and careful nuance.
