1,600 WACs in Paris parade on birthday

PARIS, France (UP) – In the first parade of women soldiers in the history of Paris, 1,600 American WACs led British and French servicewomen down the Champs Elysees today in a celebration of the WAC’s third anniversary.

The parade was reviewed by high-ranking American officers, the WAC commander, Col. Anna Wilson of Studio City, California, and Gen. Pierre Koenig, military governor of Paris.

Col. Wilson told the WACs:

You must do your fair share in the control of Germany so with a few special exceptions sent to the Pacific most of you will remain in Europe instead of returning home.
