Primarily documents the life of Romay Catherine Johnson Davis and her service with the United States Women's Army Corps (WAC). Davis recalls the various military branches that her father and all five of her brothers were members of, and how it inspired her to join the United States Women's Army Corps. She describes the ocean voyage to Europe, recalling the bitter cold wind and high waves, and the unease amongst others at the possibility of being torpedoed by Nazi U-boats. Davis recalls her assignment sorting backlogged mail in England and France, where she encountered women who, she felt, didn't take their job seriously and were always teasing her. She also recalls her introduction to design and fashion while in France, and how it provided her a lifelong career after the WAC. Personal topics includes Davis's experience with prejudice and racial discrimination, and her philosophy that everyone is one human race and in order to preserve it, we're going to have to work together.
