WAC Song Book of 1st August 1944
FOREWORD . . .

When the first women of the Women's Army Corps reported to Fort Des Moines for duty, they inherited no tradition, no legacy of songs especially theirs.

In the space of one short year, however, from the ranks have come songs, our songs, some serious, some humorous, and some martial.

There have been many requests for more than just the words to these WAC songs, the requests for the music as well, and to fill this need, the WAC Song-Book is published.

"A singing Army is a happy Army", and we who are forming tradition are proud to present the Official Song-Book of the WAC.

This Book is for Distribution only to members of the Women's Army Corps and may not be sold.
