It's about time these beautiful and brave women received their recognition. If you don't know who the WASPS were, they served the Air Force during World War II. Their service has never really been acknowledged and celebrated like it should. They are finally receiving their Congressional Medals after all these years and after so many of them have gone to the Summer lands. Congratulations ladies and Thank You from the bottom of my heart for your service!

I agree! So many of our military both past and present are not honored and appreciated nearly enough,the sacrifice these people make and their families make deserves recognition and appreciation!
Yes, congratulations ladies! And a huge "thank you"! Makes me teary and proud.
Congrats and about time!!
Now those are some sexy women! What a great picture. So many women & people of minority have had their contributions during times of dire need overlooked & forgotten about. May their legacy live on.
Woohoo...some extremely deserving (and gorgeous) women! While the fact that it's taken so many decades to receive their just desserts is sad and astonishing, it doesn't take away from the beauty of their recognition! Another point for womankind! =)

Such a way cool pic!
RE: Spay, yeah I was concerned/anxious and called the vet even before she was done to be sure it was all OK. The front desk person knows me from way back and went back to the surgery during the op to report back.....
Great photo and idea - I found the news report and read it - fascinating! I suspect the plane behind them is the famous one with that name - there were many named such. But that one is chronicled in a documentary video and was eventually shot down over Germany after many mission ...
Awesome.
well done! they really deserve it too!
thanks for posting about them Christina!
Very cool. There was a big write-up about them in my local newspaper. I also like seeing old pictures of real cowgirls.
