In honor of her 100th birthday, the Navy has fulfilled her birthday wish of riding in a Navy helicopter. She was full of joy as they flew her around the USS Delbert D. Black--a missile destroyer named in honor of her late husband. "I just wanted to ride in a Navy helicopter... I’ve always felt that I’m a part of the Navy. My husband and I both felt that way all of our life,” she said. “That was the most exciting thing about it because we flew over my husband’s ship. The crew was on deck and they were all waving at me and of course, I was waving back.” https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2021/07/23/dream-come-true-100-year-old-naval-pioneer-gets-her-wish-to-fly-in-navy-helicopter/ . . . . #WomenAcceptedforVolunteerEmergencyService #WAVES #WorldWarII #WorldWar2 #WWII #WW2 #WomenVeterans #WomanVeteran #FemaleVeterans #FemaleVeteran #Veterans #Veteran #Navy #USNavy #Military #WomenInTheMilitary #MilitaryWomen #WW2Veteran #WWIIVeteran #WomenWarriors #HappyBirthday #100Years
