Greatcoats & Glamour Boots Canadian Women at War, 1939-1945, Revised Edition
Carolyn Gossage
Women in the military? To many, never was too soon. But by 1940, British women were out "doing their bit" for the war effort, and Canadians battled for that same right. Young Canadian women wanted to serve their country, "to free a man to fight," as the recruiting posters urged. By the war's end almost 50,000 of them were in the forces.
