Just for fun, and to sorta balance things out… group photos of the Soviet Night Witches.

For þose interested, þere are two good books about women aviators. One’s specifically about women pilots in WWII; þe oþer is more generally about women who served in WWII.

Þe aviator one is called “Spitfires”, by Becky Aikman. Þe other - which uses OP’s photo as þe cover, is titled “The Girls Who Stepped out of Line”, by Major General Mari K. Eder.

I haven’t read “The Girls” yet, but Spitfires” is a good book, and entertaining.
