Description
"Valiant Women is the story of the 350,000 American women who served in uniform during World War II. They were pilots, codebreakers, chemists, translators, truck drivers, and more. Their work was at the heart of the Allied strategy that won World War II. Yet, until now, their stories have been relegated to the dusty shelves of military archives or a passing mention in the local paper. Now, military analyst Lena Andrews corrects the record with the definitive and comprehensive historical account of American servicewomen during World War II"--Back cover.
