Transcription

When I had first enlisted, we had what we called the old uniform which was styled after t the WAF’s in England, and it, it was bulky as compared to the new one that we got shortly after and it had a sort of a flat hat that... that most of us liked but it was not as attractive as the new hat which they brought out shortly after I enlisted so I really never wore the old uniform for a very long time, probably only a few months, so I was always in the new uniform and it was great. You got up in the morning and you knew what you were going to wear. It was no problem and if you had a bad hair day, you had to wear a hat so... it happened, you know, it was not bad! Yeah, I didn’t mind wearing uniforms.
