美國百歲二戰女兵獲選美冠軍

A blind, 100-year-old veteran of the Second World War has won a beauty contest in an Alabama nursing home.

Felma Schrimshire, competing under the stage name Ms. Andalusia Manor, was crowned Ms. Alabama Nursing Home this week, beating nine other finalists.

"It was wonderful!" Mrs Schrimshire told oanow.com. "Everybody has just been so nice and so sweet and caring. It's just great. I don't know any other way to express it."

Mrs Schrimshire served in the surgeon's office during the war, according to National Public Radio.

"I was going into the Army myself," said the widow, whose husband's sight was too poor to join at the time. "Not many women were in the army back then, so much to my husband's relief, I got out after one year."

After her husband's death, she moved to Alabama. She now lives with her sister at Andalusia Manor, where she spends her time studying the Bible.

But it was her friendliness and warmth that won her the title, John Matson of the Alabama Nursing Home Association said.

"She really waved at the audience, saluted all three sections of the audience. She had a very lively presence on stage, and I think that won over the judges and the crowd as well," he said.

美國一位雙目失明的百歲二戰女兵日前在阿拉巴馬州養老院舉辦的選美比賽中奪冠。

費爾瑪?施瑞姆希爾以藝名安達盧西亞?馬諾爾夫人參賽。在本周舉辦的選美比賽中,她戰勝其他九位決賽選手,摘得“阿拉巴馬州養老院小姐”的桂冠。

施瑞姆希爾夫人告訴oanow.com網站說:“感覺好極了!每個人都非常友好,很親切,也很體貼。簡直太棒了。真不知道該如何表達這種感覺。”

據美國國家公共廣播電臺報道,二戰期間,施瑞姆希爾夫人曾在外科醫生辦公室工作。

施瑞姆希爾夫人說:“我自己去參軍了。當時女軍人很少。一年后我就回來了,這讓我丈夫很欣慰。”

丈夫去世后,她搬到了阿拉巴馬州。現在,她與妹妹一起在安大路西亞?馬諾爾生活,大部分時間都用來學習《圣經》。

阿拉巴馬州養老院協會的約翰?馬特森稱,是她的友善和熱情使她奪冠。

他說:“她向觀眾揮手示意,向三個不同區域的觀眾致敬,臺風非常活潑,所以打動了評委和觀眾。”
