Nightingale

"It isn't enough to mend the body; you must treat the soul as well."

Gentle yet stern, NIGHTINGALE does her best to ease the sufferings of those around her. Born to immigrant parents who served in the USCG, Nightingale enrolled in pre-med straight out of high school. Knowing the perils soldiers faced on the front lines, she signed up with the Army to be trained as a combat medic, after she earned her doctorate. After completing her field training she was recruited into G.I. JOE as a medical officer. Although she prefers to stay far away from battle, she will not hesitate to brave a firefight to rescue the wounded, of either side. Her skill in tending soldiers doesn't end with their physical wounds; Nightingale also acts as a counselor, helping those in her care, and even those who are not, as a mother would help her children. Skilled in field medicine and surgery equally, she displays a tender and warm bedside manner, no matter the situation.
