Òåêñò àóäèðîâàíèÿ: DJ: Continuing with our series on WWII Behind the Scenes, we have with us today war historian Claire Colburn. Claire is going to tell us about the work of the Red Cross Girls, as they were called, during the war. Welcome Claire. Claire: Thank you. I'm very pleased to be here. DJ: Let's start off by talking about what the Red Cross is and what it does. Claire: Sure. The International Red Cross coordinates the activities of the 188 countries with National Red Cross societies, such as the American Red Cross. The essential feature of the International Red Cross is that it is a neutral organisation which provides assistance to people affected by disasters and conflicts. DJ: OK. So who were the Red Cross Girls? Claire: They were American women volunteers selected by the American Red Cross to go overseas to offer moral support to the soldiers. Their first job was to operate clubhouses which were places near or on army bases for soldiers to relax and take a break from the stress of war. DJ: What did the Women do there? Claire: They provided snacks and coffee. The women put on events such as dances which were very popular. The soldiers would gather at clubhouses to play cards, listen to music and socialise. The Red Cross Girls were always there to cheer up the troops and listen to tales from the warzone. DJ: Interesting. Tell us though, could any woman volunteer to be one? Claire: That's a good question. It wasn't easy to be accepted for a posting as a Red Cross Girl. Applicants had to be college graduates. They had to pass a physical examination and provide letters of reference. Finally, they had to pass a personal interview. Only one in six applicants was accepted. DJ: Why such a difficult selection process? Claire: Well, these women had to be smart and know how to deal with the suffering of war. The job required excellent interpersonal skills with the soldiers. Their work was so successful that the Red Cross started using buses called clubmobiles, fitted with coffee and donut-making equipment, in order to access remote army bases. DJ: So the girls went on the road to serve donuts and coffee? Claire: Well not just that, but that is how they got the name Donut Dollies. They not only served donuts, they played music and gave out books. But most importantly, they gave out lots of encouragement. There were three women working in each dubmobile. There was even a dubmobile that acted as a cinema. DJ: The troops must have really looked forward to seeing one of those buses arrive at their camp. Claire: They sure did. It was like a touch of home that they so desperately needed. There were close to a 100 clubmobiles that circulated around Britain but only 80 of these clubmobiles actually followed behind the troops into continental Europe and the battle front. The service of the clubmobiles was essential and these women risked their lives to help the soldiers through this horrible time. DJ: They were definitely brave women. Thank you for sharing the fascinating story of the Red Cross Girls with us today Claire. Claire: You're welcome. It was my pleasure.
