"I'm in this war too!" Women's Army Corps
Women's Army Corps recruiting poster: a uniformed woman in an Army cap points to a service flag with a blue star, under the headline 'I'm in this war too!'. The blue star, a symbol of a family member in service, is used to link a woman's own enlistment to that household connection (transfer).
