Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

A printed guide for women looking to join the armed forces in 1943, complete with practice tests and what each of the service groups look for in their recruits. The groups include: WAACS (Women's Army Auxiliary Corps, Army); WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service, Navy); SPARS (U.S. Coast Guard women's reserve); and the women's reserve in the Marines. The contents are divided by branch, and offer information on the following subjects: a brief history and description of each reserve; pay and benefits; uniforms and expectations; physical, character, and mental requirements; how to apply; physical exams and interviews; training; specialist schools; promotions; and subject-specific knowledge to have before applying (e.g. basic First Aid, arithmetic, current events, and even Morse Code). Includes photo illustrations and relevant line drawings throughout. Single vol. (11" by 8.5"), pp. 196, illus., in original illus. wrps with image of women in uniform on the front. "American women -- This is your war. Your men are sacrificing theirs lives for everything you love and believe in . Whether you wear the 'olive drab' of the WAACS or the 'navy twill' of the WAVES and SPARS or the 'forest green' of the WOMEN'S RESERVE of the U.S. MARINE CORPS, you can contribute your equal share toward victory" (p. 2). Good. Light dust soiling and toning, wear to extremities, tears and rust around staples. Tape repair to upper wrapper.…
