SECOND SATURDAY   

February 9th

WAAAM Presents 

Beauty & Duty 

   

For more than 100 years women have served the military along with their male counterpart to aide in the protection of our great nation and to help others in need.  

Alice Miller has collected over 140 uniforms and tells the story of the women who proudly wore them.  

As a collector, historian and storyteller, Alice will display and model many of these unique portals to the past while she refreshes what you know about history and teaches you something new.

You will not want to miss this presentation of women's authentic military uniforms from World War I to Vietnam and how women, fashion and uniforms have changed over time.

Living History at its BEST!

Meet WWII WASP PILOT Ana Flynn Monkiewicz. As a young woman she flew trainer & fighter planes delivering them to the men! 

 
THE "PUSHER " project has begun! Restoration Shop Tour at 11:30
