LITTLE KNOWN FACTS:

25,000 applied, 1,830 were accepted into training and only 1,074 earned their silver wings and, together with 28 WAFS, became WASP.

They paid their own way to go into training and, when disbanded, they paid their own way back home.

38 WASP and trainees were killed flying for their Country.  They received no recognition, no honors, no benefits, no gold star in the window, and no American flag allowed to cover their coffins.

Classmates & friends took up collections to help pay for burial.WASP never received the military status they were promised, even though many were sent to Officer's Training School.WASP were unceremoniously deactivated in 1944 without benefits and little thanks.After they were disbanded in 1944, their records were sealed and marked 'classified' or 'secret' and stored in the archives for over 30 years.Historians had no access to the records and accomplishments of the WASP...so, the WASP were left out of most official histories of WWII.They were denied Veteran's status for 35 yearsTheir medals and official notification of Veteran's status came in the mail.WASP can only be buried at Arlington National Cemetery as 'enlisted', not with officer's honors.In 1994, an airplane at Lackland AFB was dedicated to the WASP and, in 1999, was repainted in the "Korean conflict' colors and re-dedicated to a Korean war hero.Despite General Hap Arnold's pledge that the Air Force 'would never forget them'--it did, and so did America
