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. |

I am curious, what kind of background did your Mom have that put her into that position with the WASP's? Was she a civilian pilot prior to enlisting? |
