Only recently General Henry H. Arnold commended the fine work the WACs have been doing in many vital roles where women share in the war job. Every day more and more of these women are demonstrating their exceptional abilities at army air fields. Commanding officers of scores of posts and stations have requested more WACs to perform ' dozens of services necessary to the training and administration of the 2,300,000 personnel already in .our Air Forces. The statement of Brig. Gen. Morris Berman indicates how successfully they have fulfilled their function at this field. "Although at the present time we have only a comparatively small number of WACs on duty here," he said this week to the press of Utah, "they are rendering a great service to us and to the Army Air Forces. We are intensely proud of them, as they reflect great credit upon themselves tfnd the army as a whole." Air-WA- Is Charlotte Bremner's SPECIAL SERVICES work.
