About this event

Cyndee Schaffer is an author and educator who tells her mother's story and the history of the Women's Army Corps in her book, Mollie's War. Cyndee uses excerpts from her mother’s letters written home during WWII to provide a romantic yet frightful glimpse into the life of a woman in uniform during this crucial time in history.
 
Cyndee will detail her mother’s experiences from basic training in 1943 to a dramatic image of seeing the Statue of Liberty in the midst of darkness in November 1945 when she returned home
