Wrathmonk (#87),
...Think that went out when WRAF were "amalgamated" into the RAF...
1994, I believe. I speak of the late '60s
...From your experience how were female SOE operatives thought of during WW2? ...
No special experience of them. They were universally admired for their courage.
...Were there any 'second thoughts' at the time about using females in such role?...
None at all on gender grounds
AFAIK - and they were all volunteers, of course.
Danny.
