else she's just an ordinary naval
rating-one of the $4,000 men,
bers of the Women's Royal Naval
Service.
What does she think OF the
war? Vickie is having the time of
her life.
Her father is a clerk in a coun-
try village. She was born in that
village, Schooled there and prob
ably would never have come to
London if il hadn't been for the
war. Until she joined the Wrens,
Vickie hadn't been away from her
family's side. Life las pleasant,
but a trifle mOnOtOnouS.

COMES MEMORABLE DAY

Then came that memorable day,
"a year ago. when she volunteered
with the WrenS. She's 10 now and
has job in a London dockyard
area. She runs errands, works
the switchboard and. in her spare
time, is learning TO type.
Today life is immensely cxcit-

fly. Things are moving down
where she works and suddenly,
for the first time in her life, she
finds that she's moving too.
Vickie is part of the British Navy.
OF course she's proud and ter
ribly happy.
Even her language has become
naval. She talks about the
mess her cabin" and bunk. ="
In the morning she goes ashore
to work. Last night she invited
me ION board for dinner.

The first sitting Of dinner al
ready was in progress when we
arrived so Vickie took me up TO
her cabin" Three double-decker
beds lined the walls. There was a
little other furniture. a small cup
board, a chest of drawers and
pegs for hanging clothes. Like
their fellow sailors, the Wrens
are expected TO live in a suitcase.
