Two Week WAC

Bag om Two Week WAC

Experience what it was like to be one of the first female soldiers in the US Army. In 1978, the Women's Army Corps had just been disbanded, and the army-having been a social experiment and the melting pot for every new political requirement-grudgingly accepted women into their ranks. Bea Ann Amark was among them. She set out to drive trucks for the army and joined the 232nd Transportation Company and soon found herself stationed in West Germany in the late 1970s. The Cold War was in fully swing, and the company's group of truck drivers suddenly became family, both on and off the road. The time Amark spent there shaped the way she lived the rest of her life and gave her an adventure she would never forget. An in-depth and personal look at a woman's life in the army, Two-Week WAC tells the story of one woman's army service, an unexpected choice that changed the course of her life.
