    Summary: 
    "Navy WAVES (Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service) made it possible for more than 50,000 men to report to sea duty, and they filled 27,000 other jobs. It was a time of rationing and Victory Gardens. This book shows middle readers the significant contributions that the WAVES and other women made to their country during World War II."--Provided by publisher.
