WAC in Military Aviation Training
World War II Women in Uniform Record of WAC Women Engaged in Military Aviation Training Including Treasure Island San Francisco. 1943
1943. Women's Army Corps service and female aviation training during World War II documented in photographs dating from approximately 1943 to 1945. The images record the wartime expansion of women's participation in the United States military following the establishment of the Women's Army Corps in 1943 and the parallel development of programs that placed women in aviation related roles supporting the war effort. The photographs depict women in uniform participating in military drill training activities and aviation work around small aircraft illustrating the increasing presence of women in technical and logistical positions that supported military operations during the war. One image taken at Treasure Island in San Francisco situates part of the archive within one of the major naval training and transit centers used by the United States during the conflict.<br /> <br /> Archive of 20 original black and white silver gelatin photographs dating from the World War II years. Several images show members of the Women's Army Corps posing in formation saluting and participating in organized training exercises. Other photographs depict women standing beside small aircraft preparing for flight or seated in cockpits suggesting involvement in aviation training or aircraft support work connected to wartime flight programs. Informal photographs show servicewomen gathered outside wooden barracks relaxing in flight gear and posing beside aircraft. One photograph identifies the location as Treasure Island San Francisco. Several prints contain handwritten inscriptions on the reverse identifying individuals and dates including notes such as "Sincerely Leona" along with named individuals including Sensabough Bash Braughton Rogers Mazie Paula and June and Kay Gallagher with Bud Sterthors and Donley.<br /> <br /> During World War II the Women's Army Corps allowed women to serve in uniform in administrative mechanical and communications positions that had previously been reserved for men while aviation related programs trained women to ferry aircraft and assist in technical flight operations. These initiatives formed part of the broader mobilization of American women into wartime labor and military service during the 1940s. Photographic documentation of female service members provides important visual evidence of the changing roles of women within the armed forces during the war. Photographs measure approximately 3.5 x 5 inches and are preserved as loose prints. Minor edge wear and light creasing visible on several photographs; overall very good condition. The archive offers concise visual documentation of women's military and aviation participation during the Second World War. unknown

Wade, Horace M (1916-2001). General in the US Air Force (1937-1973) who was appointed Vice Chief of Staff of the the US Air Forc
TYPED LETTER SIGNED BY VICE CHIEF OF STAFF OF THE U.S. AIR FORCE GENERAL HORACE M. WADE.
Washington DC: January 12th 1973. 1973. Fine. - 100 words typed on a cream-colored 10-1/2 inch high by 9 inch wide sheet of "Department of the Air Force Office of the Chief of Staff" letterhead with the address and the Department of Defense seal printed in blue at the top. Signed "H. M. Wade". The bottom right corner is lightly bumped. Folded twice for mailing. Near fine. <p>Wade replies to a letter from Congressman Seymour Halpern soliciting his personal thoughts on achieving a lasting world peace. Wade assures Halpern of his desire for a just and lasting world peace "however although your request was for my personal 'views or formulas' any comments by me on this critically important subject through other than official channels would be highly inappropriate."<p>Horace Milton Wade 1916-2001 saw active service in World War II and the Vietnam War. In 1968 he was designated commander in chief United States Air Forces in Europe and was promoted to general. The following year he was appointed chief of staff Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe and in 1972 he became Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force--the post he held when this letter was written.<p>The Queens New York Republican Congressman Seymour Halpern 1913-1997 started his political career as a campaign aide to New York's powerful mayor Fiorella La Guardia and first served in New York's State Senate for 14 years before seeking a seat in the U.S. Congress. In Albany Halpern sponsored 279 bills that became law including measures on schools housing civil rights nutrition and mental health. A Liberal he was something of an anomaly as the lone Republican representative from New York City and generally garnered support from Labor Unions and endorsement from the Liberal Party. Yet he never even considered switching parties as he considered membership in the Republican Party a family tradition and commitment. While he found ample time for his private pursuits including painting and collecting autographs he took his legislative duties very seriously. Of these he was proudest of his co-sponsorship of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and of the original 1965 Medicare legislation. Washington, DC: January 12th, 1973. unknown

London 1910. First Edition. London: C C Wakefield & Co 1910. First UK Edition. A softback. Slim paperback with printed covers. 12 x 18.5cm 36 pp. A rare early piece of aviation literature. This booklet records the performances and flying shows etc. during 1909 and 1910 in the United Kingdom and at the Doncaster Aviation Meet in October 1909. It is essentially an advertisement for C C Wakefield's Wakefield Motor Oil which seems to be in every plane.

This booklet is also one of the first published mentions of 'Castrol' which was invented in 1909 by C C Wakefield. I can only find one existing copy in the National Aerospace Library. This copy is in very good condition for its age. There is some fading and sunning to the covers but the contents remains in very good order. Further photographs available upon request. paperback
