Women with Wings: WASP Pilots of Washington with Rebecca Hom

On November 5th, 2025, at 7 PM, Gesa Power House Theatre is proud to present Women with Wings: WASP Pilots of Washington with Rebecca Hom. This presentation is sponsored in part by ArtsWA and the Greater Hermiston Community Foundation.

Between the two short years of 1942-1944, an amazing 25,000 women applied to fly planes for the US Army Airforce. Only 1 of 25 applicants made it through to the intensive training program. The 1,074 graduates became Women Airforce Service Pilots, the first women to fly US military planes: civilian pilots in an experimental Army Airforce program.

Washington State was home to more than twenty of those determined young women. This is a part of their exciting life stories.

This event will run 45-60 minutes, with a Q&A after the performance.
