Description

Published by Robert Hale Limited in 1946, You Met Such Nice Girls in the Wrens is a humorous and lively diary of Lola Brown, a member of the Women’s Royal Naval Service (WRNS).

The author, “Tackline,” shifts from the conscientious reporting in his first book Holiday Sailor to light-hearted comedy, capturing the spirit of the WRNS, the loyal and efficient “kid-sister” of the Royal Navy.

Lola’s diary covers her time at naval stations, including a remote camp in Scotland and a Combined Operations base on the South Coast, all with a satirical note. The latter half of the book focuses on her experiences as part of a liberty-boat crew.
