The WAAF Book: A Scrapbook of Wartime Memories (1982) Signed By Bathia Mackenzie
 
The WAAF Book. A Scrapbook of wartime memories compiled by Bathia Mackenzie. 'There are many books which tell of the great campaigns of the Second World War, and of the lives and experiences of the men who fought for their country. Often forgotten, however, and, until now, virtually unrecorded, has been the vital role played by women during those years. Between 1941 and 1945 more than 4000 women were accepted for service in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, the first of the women's services to be formed in New Zealand.
 
The WAAF Book tells the story of these women, largely through their own memories and photographs, sent in by ex-WAAFs throughout New Zealand and overseas. In a wide variety of tasks, from refueling aircraft to cooking in the station messes, the WAAFs helped keep the New Zealand air force in the skies and fighting.
