Description

Bee Dawson's interviews with these pioneering women reveal a diverse range of experience, from the excited fear surrounding the sighting of a Japanese spy plane, to the tragedy of a plane crash; from improvised wedding breakfasts, to living in huts so cold their lipsticks froze. For many young men, this was undoubtedly the time of their lives. - back cover.
