One of only 25 women who qualified as pilots for the original Women’s Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron, Florene Miller Watson discusses her experiences before, during and after World War II. She served as a flight instructor and taught men to fly in the War Training Program in Texas and was later made the commanding officer over the WAFS-WASPs stationed at Love Field, Texas. When WWII was finally over, Watson had flown every fighter, cargo plane, bomber and training aircraft in the Air Corps inventory.
