Nice! Thanks for sharing. I've had other WAC and WAVE groupings where the lady was an ARC worker before the war. I take it this lady was with the ARC AFTER the war.

Another fine vet I'd like to have met.

Wonderful grouping! So many WWII veterans continued to serve our country after the war ended. Another fine example of wonderful female veteran!
