Shuffleboard Pilots: The History of the Women's Air Raid Defense in Hawaii, 1941-1945 | 
pick#Rushathon #NovelNovember
Finished earlier in the week. I read about this book in the back of Radar Girls by Sarah Ackerman & had it transferred to my local library branch from our main library. An informative & insightful look at the Women‘s Air Raid Defense (WARD) a civilian organization that operated from 1941-1945 in Hawaii providing air defense after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Worth seeking out & reading if you like WWII/women‘s history.

tpixie I love finding a book from another book- those unexpected rabbit holes! 5mo
tpixie Oh my! $133 on Amazon. I better check my library!! 5mo
DebinHawaii @tpixie Yes, it‘s a fairly thin paperback published by the Arizona Memorial Museum back in the 90s. Not a lot of pages but good info! I‘m going to keep my eye out for a used copy to buy. 5mo
DebinHawaii @tpixie I think it‘s a little obscure. Even in the state of Hawaii, only the main branch had a copy & I had to wait for them to send it over! 5mo
tpixie @DebinHawaii I‘m glad at least Hawaii had this book! 5mo
