A firsthand glimpse of women’s Army service during WWII: the December 20, 1943 issue of The WAC Herald, published for WAC Detachment No. 1 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
Volume I, Issue VIII combines a colorful illustrated Christmas cover with typed articles about unit life. Inside are personnel references, military orders, social news, humorous barracks stories, poems, quizzes, and holiday messages.
Its appeal lies in the everyday details of service rather than battlefield reporting—a personal record of the women who staffed and contributed to this wartime newsletter.
Stapled paper publication, identified as a monthly issue. Numbered pages through page 16 appear in the photographs; full completeness has not been independently verified.
