Показать описание
During WWII, 1,074 women were part of the Women Air Force Service Pilots or WASPS. They were a group of women pilots that ferried planes, tested aircraft, and towed targets in live ammunition exercise. Jane Tedeschi was one of those Pilots. Now at 97, she reminisce with her son, Alan Tedeschi, about those days.

I never realised that there were female pilots in the airforce in WW11. Its amazing to know, & praise them immensily. I realise there weren't many, but I'm sure it was simply because of the MALE rights - disgusting. I am extremely proud of the women.
