Radar Girls, by Sara Ackerman, came as a loan from Tall Reader. Set in Hawaii, just after December 7, 1941, it features the women who were recruited for the Women's Air Raid Defense, a top secret program. For the first time, women were serving on the front lines. Naturally there were many who thought they couldn't do it. A nicely written bit of historical fiction. Be sure to read the note from the author at the back.
