Women in the American Military

Women have served in the American military since the Revolutionary War. During World War II, over 350,000 women served in the Women's Army Corps (WAC),the Women's Airforce Service Pilots (WASP),and the Navy WAVES. They served in a variety of roles, from nurses and drivers to pilots and mechanics.
