The Fly Girls Revolt

In this episode I'm joined by Dr. Eileen Bjorkman, retired US Air Force Colonel and author of the book The Fly Girls Revolt: The Story of the Women Who Kicked Open the Door to Fly in Combat. While the book talks about more recent Air Force history, Eileen does include the WASP in her book so I asked her if she would help expand the story a bit and also share her insight as a woman who also happens to be a retired Air Force Colonel and a pilot. Eileen's book The Fly Girls Revolt is now available and can be found here (https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Fly-Girls-Revolt/Eileen-A-Bjorkman/9781637585948) and here (Amazon Affiliate Link https://amzn.to/3MRhwVJ) Other Links: https://eileenbjorkman.com/books https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Biographies/Display/Article/108531/eileen-a-bjorkman/ http://www.motheroftanks.com/ads-sponsors-and-affiliate-links/
