Saturday Inspection

IMG_1932

  1. Hello, I would like to know more about the WAVES Newsletter and where I can get access to copies digitally. Thank you! check out http://www.womencalledtoaction.wordpress.com a local history website in Bloomington IL.

    1. I’m not aware of any digital archives holding the WAVES newsletters. We found them in bricks and mortar archives at places where WAVES trained.
