WRVS volunteers

nurses

spies

WAC soldiers (In the USA over 300,000 women served in the armed forces)

auxillary volunteers

Some served on hopital ships and others at the rear of the war front

I understand 500,000 women in the UK were in the armed forces. Some had been conscripted into military service. Princess Elizabeth served in the nursing corps.
