[78WL] The Womens Legion

The Womens Legion was raised by Lady Londonderry, and first commenced duties on 3rd August 1915. Their initial task was to supply cooks to the New Army, but later they were employed on other tasks, and a Motor Transport Section was formed in February 1917. When the WAAC was formed in 1917 the cooking and General Services Sections enrolled in it, but the Motor Transport Section continued overseas until 1919. Motor drivers wore a claret background to their badges.
