Mary Josephine Farley
after this, she became a WASP.



Good call. My mother was a WASP. A very
overlooked program.






Not by me.. one of the ladies that I worked with was a WASP.

also:

from the WASP database & The Congressional Record.

43-8 Lois Gene Holman nee (French)

&

Dora Dougherty, third from left in front of B-29 "Ladybird"
with Lt. Col. Paul W. Tibbets, Jr. (left), Dorothea Johnson (2nd from
left) and B-29 crew.

Col Tibbets trained these two ladies to fly the B-29 to show the men
that the plane was not dangerous.



My mother was part of the WASP's trained
to fly the B26 to show the men the men it was
not as dangerous as made out. "A plane a day
in Tampa Bay" and all that.
