plane trip to Tunis where they
were assigned to headquarters ot

the WACs have won the respect
and admiration of army officers
for their efficiency. Off duty,
they enjoy numerous recrea
tional facilities. Once a week
there's a dance In the spacious
recreation hall and then there's
a "rumpus room" for the WACs
exclusive use.
