A fact from Home Before Morning appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 31 December 2020 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that the 1983 memoir Home Before Morning, which details the author's time as a Vietnam War nurse, is dedicated to "all of the unknown women who served forgotten in their wars"?

Drive-by comment: This is not the most interesting hook fact. I suggest you forget about the TV series and say something else. Yoninah (talk) 22:51, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1: ... that it was planned for the memoir Home Before Morning to be adapted into a feature film until critics became vocal about how nurses in wars were portrayed within the book?
Thank you for the alts. Here is a review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. ALT1 has an offline hook ref that is AGF and cited inline. I would suggest streamlining the wording this way:
ALT1a: ... that the 1983 memoir Home Before Morning was going to be adapted into a feature film until critics became vocal about how it portrayed nurses in wartime?
ALT2 reads very nicely, though I would suggest adding the year:
ALT2a: ... that the 1983 memoir Home Before Morning, which details the author's time as a Vietnam War nurse, is dedicated to "all of the unknown women who served forgotten in their wars"?
ALT2 hook ref is verified and cited inline. QPQ done.

Thank you. My preference is for ALT2a. Striking unused hooks. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:40, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
