Mrs. Tennenbaum enlisted in the Women's Auxiliary Army Corps or the WAAC. She went for her basic training at Daytona Beach. She spoke German so was assigned to processing German prisoners. Part of her job was fingerprinting and sorting identification. Once she became a WAC, she was sent to Fort Oglethorpe for overseas training and then shipped overseas to England. She was assigned to the First Base Post Office. From England, she was sent just outside of Paris, France in the same capacity. |
