Working title was "Tender Warriors".
This was shown months after the death of Jacqueline Cochran who was Director of Women Pilots in the War Department in WWII. The real group was made up of two sections - the Women's Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron and the Women's Flying Training Detachment. The two combined to become the Women Air Force Service Pilots (WASP). Sixty-eight WASPS are still alive as of January 2018.
