Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Sally Scott of the WAVES" by Roy J. Snell is a historical novel written in the early 1940s. The story centers around Sally Scott, a young woman who has joined the Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service (WAVES) during World War II. The narrative delves into her adventurous experiences as she navigates military life, forming friendships, and using her impressive skills in radio communication, which may play a pivotal role in the war efforts. The opening of the novel introduces Sally as a resourceful and determined character who is engaged in a secret mission involving her unique radio equipment, which she keeps hidden due to its importance and the strict regulations against radio use in her quarters. Shortly after starting her new life in the WAVES, she connects with Nancy, an old friend, and soon reveals her thrilling ambitions tied to a mysterious, innovative radio that she hopes can aid in military communications. As they prepare for their military duties, Sally's resolve to serve her country becomes clearer, setting the stage for a story filled with camaraderie, ambition, and the spirit of wartime adventure.
