Eisenhower, allied African com

show an extra polish now that the
first detachment of WAACS has

jobs' and release men for the

neater," he grinned in mentioning
the WACCS. "Man has and prob

because of their presence."

the front "I insist" said the gen
eral, "that every man replaced by
a WAAC go into active combatant
service."
