In the lower left, three WASP in flight uniforms are depicted in relief walking toward their aircraft, with an AT-6 Texan (numbered 264) airborne in the background, breaking through the inner border. The surrounding legend reads 'WOMEN AIRFORCE SERVICE PILOTS' with the dates '1942–1944' in the lower exergue, and the designer's initials 'JI' and 'PH' appear within the design. |
