Women Pilots Proudly Wearing the Uniform During World War II
As the U.S. entered World War II in 1942, it was widely known that America did not have enough airplanes or pilots to fight the War. As factories converted to aircraft assembly, finding enough male pilots for both combat and stateside jobs proved to be the more difficult task. In desperation the U.S. created an experimental squadron known as the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) to execute all stateside missions. While they proved their flying skills were equal to their brothers, many practical issues arose now that women were in service starting with the biggest question of “What shall we wear?” Join the National WASP WWII Museum’s Executive Director, Lisa Taylor, as she highlights theses trailblazing women in service.
