My mother, Viola M. Violette was a Navy Wave (2nd graduating class, I believe) who for a time was stationed at Alameda Naval Air Station, CA as a Storekeeper. I believe she was in the service during WWII from 1944 to 1945/6. She was originally from Yakima, Washington. She passed away on Feb. 14, 2001 in Yakima and had a military burial. She was just shy of 90 years old. She was always proud of her service in the war.
