Wartime work leads to Women's Liberation

Well my job was not much different than it would be to go to an office and, and I, I worked for the pay lieutenant commander who was the pay master and the job in pay too was to see that when the ships came in the fellas got some money.

I think it was a wonderful experience and something that changed all of us. I mean, many of us had joined up very young and from homes that were dominated, mine certainly was, by my father, and I have always said I thought it was the beginning of Women's Lib, that we had all changed, and particularly those who were officers and, and in positions of, of responsibility. I mean, they came home and, and they weren't the same little shop girls that they had been when they joined up. We had all changed.
