She was one of the first women trained to airlift soldiers from the battlefield aboard C130 and C141 planes. She served at many foreign posts had a distinguished military career.
Not one to be left behind, my Mom enlisted in the Navy shortly after her brother was drafted. She also contributed to her country's war effort by helping administratively with supply distribution. We were so glad to attend this moving tribute.
