Women's Army Auxiliary Corps

--

The following lists the brave ladies of Hull, and a growing number from around East Yorkshire, who served in the WAAC during World War One. The National Archives describes the WAAC thus;

The WAAC was divided into four sections: Cookery; Mechanical; Clerical and Miscellaneous. Most stayed on the Home Front but around 9,000 served in France. The women in the WAAC did not have full military status. They enrolled, they did not enlist, and breaches of discipline were dealt with by civil, not military, courts. The grades (ranks) were divided into Controllers and Administrators (the officers) and Members (the other ranks). Within the Members there were forewomen (sergeants), assistant forewomen (corporals) and workers (privates).

A reference number is provided so that their records may be ordered from the National Archives. The cost of each individual's record is (at the time of posting) £3.50 and the amount of information varies between individuals.
