Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Women's Royal Australian Naval Service (WRANS) was a non-combat branch of the Royal Australian Navy that recruited women. Like many of its sister services created during the Second World War, it alleviated manpower shortages resulting from men being assigned to combat roles. The Service was established in April 1941 when the Royal Australian Navy enrolled 14 women at HMAS Harman, the wireless telegraphy station near Canberra. Two women were stewards, and 12 trained as telegraphists. At the time, the formation of this civilian unit was not publicised, but this changed when the War in the Pacific was perceived as a growing threat to Australia.
