Thank You,

Since I just picked this up on ebay this week to complete my Aunt's uniform. I might as well post these pic's.

Although I know it would make the picture correct, you should consult with your Aunt's discharge before adding just the WAAC ribbon to her uniform. You may find that she had at least two other ribbons.

That is a good point. I was just going for the picture but that would be a disservice to her service if I neglected to add what she was awarded. I guess I will have to do some more research and find her service records/discharge

Thanks Flyboy!!!

I added the WAAC ribbon to make it match the photo I posted of her in this uniform.

I tried to delete the bottom one but the editor won't let me delete it.

Well I finally enlarged a photo that my cousin sent me. She is the one that sent me all of my Aunt Annie's uniform. I framed it up and think it displays quite well. I also added the dress to the display!!

I'm sure my Aunt is smiling down on it right now.

And I used my wife's newer phone to take the pic. Way BETTER quality!!!
