The same thing nurses do everywhere else in the world, they assist physicians.
The average age of the nurses was 22. Though there were many who went to war right out of college at age 20 the majority of the nurses were surgical nurses, hospital nurses and trauma nurses. They had experience so they were not real young. Some of the older nurses were 40 years old. They served as supervisors and Head Nurses and had high up ranks. This was true in all the allied forces. I don't know about the Germans and Japanese.
