Dear Mother and Daddy: World War II Letters Home from a WASP

During WWII, Marie Mountain completed U.S. Air Force pilot training with the Women's Air Force Service Pilots (WASP) and then served at the Las Vegas Army Air Base. While stationed there, she wrote frequent letters home, informing her parents of the adventures, joys and difficulties she experienced as a participant in the ground-breaking national experiment of having women serve as military aircraft pilots. This book presents her letters and an autobiographical memoir, as well as many personal photographs.
