<P> In December 1944, Renée Lemaire returned to Bastogne to visit her parents, and was trapped when the Germans launched its Ardennes offensive on December 16, 1944 . Along with nurse Augusta Chiwy, she volunteered at an aid station for the American 20th Armored Infantry Battalion on December 21, 1944 . In a commendation request from Battalion Surgeon Dr. Jack T. Prior, Lemaire was described as "cheerfully accepted the Herculean task and worked without adequate rest or food ...", that she "changed dressings, fed patients unable to feed themselves, gave out medications, bathed and made the patients more comfortable ...", and "her very presence among those wounded men seem to be an inspiration to those whose morale had declined from prolonged suffering ." </P> <P> On December 24, 1944, around 8: 30PM, Germans bombed the building where the aid station was located . According to a column in a Belgian newspaper, the aid station in the basement of the Sarma Store on rue de Neufchateau was demolished . Lemaire managed to evacuate six soldiers from the burning building, and died while she attempted to save a seventh wounded . Dr. Prior recovered her remains, and brought them back to her parents wrapped in a white parachute . </P> <P> In the Band of Brothers episode "Bastogne", a Belgian nurse named Renée (portrayed by Lucie Jeanne) and a Congolese nurse named Anna (portrayed by Rebecca Okot) were shown to work tirelessly with American medics, including Eugene Roe, to help wounded soldiers . Historical accounts of Lemaire do not mention Roe . </P>
