I saw WASP, forgot my history for a second, and thought this was some white nationalist thing.

Looked this woman up, and she had a career as a pilot and test pilot after the war. Some bad ass stuff that involved bailing out of planes trying out experimental technologies.

She lived to be ninety years old.

Finally, those forties women really had a look to them. Maybe I'm a terrible member of the patriarchy for saying that, but I can't not appreciate aesthetics when I see them.
