Dear Miss Van Daell:
Now that the Womens' Airforce Service Pilots, of
which you were a member has fulfilled its assign-
ment with the Army Air Forces, TWA believes that
many of the highly trained personnel of your unique
organization will be interested in continuing their
careers in aviation.
The specialized training you have received with the
"WASP" will undoubtedly qualify you for many of the
positions now open in TWA. A list of these positions
is attached for your consideration. The listed posi-
tions, are available all along TWA's transcontinental
system, although not all the classifications listed
are open in all locations.
While TWA does not at the present time assign women
as co-pilots, should such a decision be made in the
future, all former members of the "WASP" in our em-
ploy will be given the first opportunity to qualify.
A copy of our standard application is enclosed. If
interested, will you please fill out in detail indi-
cating your preference of the positions listed and
return it to us. We shall give it immediate considera-
tion. In reviewing your application, consideration
will be given to your preference of location.
Very truly yours,
R. C. Oberdahn
Director - Industrial Relation;RCO:CD
