Wacs direct bombers in England

ENGLAND - Bombers returning from missions over Germany which have been damaged or have lost their bearings receive new directions from these Wacs in a mobile control unit truck. The Wacs standing around the table are plotters who by means of strings track the course of the plane on an operational map. The Wac in the background is the controller's clerk. The officer is the controller whose job is to maintain direct communications with the pilot, the course of whose ship the Wacs are plotting. Left to right they are—Pfc. Llewellyn Grayson, 5046 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pa; Cpl. Emily Fisher, Boston-Hudson Road, Boston, Ohio, Pfc. Doloris Beauchamp, 626 Moody Street, Waltham, Mass; 2d Lt. Wm. H. Arnold, T/5 Ethel Robson, Route 2, Staunton, Va; and Sgt. Susie Kercheval, 1423 S. Washington Street, Marion, Indiana.
