Women join Navy as invasion begins
News of the Allied invasion of France prompted many Virginia women to join the WAVES, Navy Recruiter Alton Frix said here today.
He quoted LtCdr. Charles L. Kessler, the officer in charge of Navy recruiting in Virginia, as saying:
Since word of the invasion of Western Europe reached Virginia, young women have been responding magnificently. Most of them realize now is the time to help Uncle Sam and the U.S. Navy in their task.
Full information concerning enlistment in the Navy or WAVES may be secured from Frix at the Navy recruiting substation in the post office building here each Monday,
