Air weather service men believe
they have concrete proof that it's

They point out that prior to
1912 the Army Air Forces weather

out of every four U. S. Air Force
base weather stations in the Unit
ed States includes WAF's (Women
in the Air Force as forecasters
or observers.
The highly technical nature OF
air weather service activities calls
for considerable skill and training.
AS in the Air Force. the WAF's OF
the air weather service careers
are guided along carefully planned
lines. The purpose is to prepare
each woman for specific weather
asSignment-the duty for which
she is best suited by aptitude,
training and inclination and
which, in many cases, may prove
of value to her at a later date
would she return to civilian life.
A WAF entering the air wealth
er service begins her career the
same as all women in the Air
Force. Before her first assign
ment, the recruit goes through
approximately eight weeks of basic
training at Lakeland Air Force
Base, Texas. For the majority o1
recruits, basic training is just q
