Yes, that is exactly it.  My understanding is that women of the WAAC and WRNS were given the opportunity to join the WRAF when the RAF were formed in WW1 and that these women were encouraged to reenlist in the WAAF in WW2 despite their age.  It is one of these women that I want to portray hence needing to know the exact medals they would have been awarded at the end of WW1.

World War One / Waaf medal issue
« on: Sunday 07 January 18 20:36 GMT (UK)  »
Can someone help me?  What medals would a waaf who had served in ww1 be entitled to?  My research seems to indicate that she would have received the victory medal and the British war medal  but my ex-army boyfriend thinks she would not have the victory medal. I am a re-enactor so it is important I get it right.
