My mom was a nurse in the Army Air Corps during WWII, and she remembers flying over the Himalayas equipped with a rifle and a parachute, "neither of which," she'd add, "we knew how to use." Her army trunk never caught up with her and was finally returned to her after the war was over, with everything inside covered with mold.
