What a girl!

Nice picture of a beautiful young lady and, I'm sure, a heck of a pilot, too.
I clicked on the link you left, which led to that picture and many others, and guess who else popped up in that list...

Listed as "Ruth Westheimer, 43-6, Jackson".
For a minute, I was like "Dr. Ruth?!"
For those that don't recall or are too young to have known, Dr. Ruth Westheimer was a sex therapist who had a popular TV show back in the 1980's.
For a while, she was quite the celebrity and her face was everywhere.
However, I looked her up and her Wiki page proves she was living in Switzerland until after the war, so the lady seen above is a different person.
Born in 1928, she would've been a bit young to be an active pilot during WWII anyway.
I was really floored though. The name is the same, and she kinda looks a little like her, too.
