 One way we make a positive impact is by recognizing accomplishments that bring value to our organization. Today, International Women's Day, we highlight the achievements of Navy women in aviation, acknowledging that these trailblazers have made us, and continue to make us, a stronger and more capable service. In 1917, the U.S. Navy was the first military service to enlist women in fields other than nursing. One of these enlisted women was Yeoman 1st Class Joy Bright. In World War II, she became an officer in the Navy and recommended that women be employed in aviation. Bright Hancock's advocacy generated the elite group of women accepted and volunteer emergency services, WAVES, that charted a new course in air navigation during World War II, some of whom served as state-side navigators training male pilots in navigation skills. From Joy Bright Hancock, I leave you with this quote, I shall always owe a debt of gratitude to the WAVES, for they, by their performance and dedication, made our accomplishment possible. Lead well this week.
