- Description:
- Jane Piatt, chair of the Women's Overseas Service League's National Oral History Project, moderates a conversation between several WOSL members gathered for the 60th Anniversary celebration of the organization's Milwaukee Unit. Unidentified speakers reminisce about their often colorful service experiences in such places as Australia, Japan, Korea, Okinawa, Brussels, and other far-flung places around the globe. The women say that it often took boldness, creativity and audacity to survive and thrive in a "man's world." The women later hold a short business meeting, convene the session with the Pledge of Allegiance and recite the WOSL's mission and purpose statement. An unidentified participant also provides a brief history of the Milwaukee Unit. Jane Piatt describes the Oral History Project, its goals, how it has been coordinated, and the success rate of conducting interviews and obtaining recordings.
