They dressed as men, worked for little pay and no benefits, and endured prejudice to break down barriers and earn their place beside their fellow servicemen. The achievements and courageous acts of these women forever changed the way the military operates!"--Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a United States $x Women $x Women $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Women soldiers $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 651 0 $a United States $x Women $x Women $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Kuo, Julia, $e illustrator. 941 $a 6 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012013335.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220507011335.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210304015043.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20200724011905.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110081648.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20190925012757.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1E3B90C8C4A211E9B0E1DB5297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
