Program Description

Event Details

Members of the Women’s Army Corps (WACs) were the first women other than nurses to serve overseas in World War II. Cyndee Schaffer’s mother, Mollie Weinstein Schaffer, was one of them. This presentation draws upon excerpts from Mollie's letters written home during the war to provide a view of what war life was like for Mollie and many other women who served in Europe.
