What was the role of women in the 1st and 2nd World Wars?
Women in World War 2 could do many jobs since the men were gone. more elderly women who weren't able to work in the factories could join WVS, or the Women's Volenteer Service. WVS was the largest women's volenteer service at the time. By 1944, there were over 1 million women working for the service. they helped evacuated children, drove ambulances, ran canteens and nursuries. Women could also join the Land Army.

What is the difference between the women's groups SPARS and WAVES in World War 2?
The SPARS were the U.S. Coast Guard's women's auxiliary. The name came from the short version of Semper Paratus (always prepared). The WAVES were the U.S. Navy's women's branch-- I think it stood for Women Accepting Volunteer Emergency Service. Congresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers (R:MA) was one of the strongest champions of letting women serve in the military during World War 2, and it was largely through her efforts that a bill was passed to create a women's branch of the military. And while the jobs available to women were mostly clerical and support jobs, many women eagerly volunteered to serve their country.
