While traditionally female secretarial and clerical jobs took an expectedly large portion of recruits, thousands of WAVES (Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service) Performed previously atypical duties in the aviation community - such as Judge Advocate General Corps - as well as in the medical professions, communications, intelligence, science and technology.The photography team, headed by legendary photographer Edward Steichen, captured these heroic women at work, rest and play. All the photos are from the American National Archives and most have not been previously published.
