WACs now allowed to date ‘shavetails’

Allied HQ, North Africa (UP) –
The Army newspaper Stars and Stripes caused a stir in the Red Cross officers’ club today with the revelation of the new order which permits WACs to date Army officers.

For a long time, second lieutenants have been watching wealthy sergeants, and privates, wining and dining the best-looking American girls in this theater. At the same time, the Red Cross girls seemed to confine their dates solely to the higher-ranking officers, resulting in the saying that you have to be a colonel to date a Red Cross girl.

Capt. Martha E. Rodgers new company commander, has opened the field to the shavetails with the order lifting the restriction on WAC dating.

The only string to the order is that WACs are still not permitted to date officers for whim they are working.
