WAF GrowthI
To Start Soon
Col. May Stresses
Strength of Women
The war of the sexes will soon
be in full swing in the Air Force.
The number of women in this
branch of the armed service is
expected to triple in the next six
months, and that means stiff
competition in Officers Candidate
School, said Col. Geraldine P.
May, director of WAF.
THE NUMBER of women Col.
May commands was restricted by
law to 4,000 until June, but she
disclosed that they have been re-
cruiting WAFs at the rate of about
500 a month since then.
"And since we're now allow-
ed more than two percent of the
authorized strength of the Air
Force, we hope nearly to triple
our strength this Spring, de-
pending on training facilities,"
she added.
Col. May gives several good rea-
sons why servicemen should never
underestimate the power of a
military woman.
"THE TOP officer in the last
graduating class for Air Force
non-rated officers at Lackland
Air Force Base was a WAF," the
-colonel stated at a recent press
conference. "Another WAF is at
the head of the present class."
To demonstrate the power of
the WAFs, Col. May took up the
matter of the blue shirts recent-
ly assigned to Air Force men
along with the new blue uni-
forms.
"Wesdidn't quite like that col-
or of blue, so we sort of scouted
around and found this light blue
Oxford cloth for ours;" Col. May
said.
"Now the men are going to use
this color too, as soon as they use
up about about 7,000,000 yards of
the material they already had,"
the WAFs ranking officer pointed
out.
