Dear Colleagues:

A former student is in the process of writing a graphic novel on Soviet Women in WWII. In particular, she is interested in any information that discusses women in auxiliary roles, such as laundresses, cooks, censors, telephone operators, and signalers. 

To give you some sense of the information required, here are some of the questions for which she is seeking answers:  Were these women attached to or members of the military?  How were their day-to-day activities organized and by whom?  What were the motivations
 for their participation in the war effort?  Were they local women?  Were they evacuated only to return to the front?  Were they partisans and then moved into these jobs?   Were they supervised by other women?

Any information would be both useful and appreciated.  While Russian sources will likely be more numerous, the writer needs sources in English.

Please reply to me off list--cynthia.ruder at uky.edu-- with any Russian & English sources that might be useful.  Thank you in advance for your help.

Sincerely, Cindy Ruder
