My mother, Gwen Peters, joined the WRNS on 6th November 1941 having originally applied to join in December 1940 but rejected as her teeth were in poor condition. She joined at HMS Pembroke and after 3 weeks was transferred to HMS Glendower as a writer (typist). She was promoted to Leading Wren on 31st May 1943 remaining at HMS Glendower until April 1944. She was then drafted to HMS Monck at Largs in Ayrshire. On 1st October 1944 she was drafted to HMS Eaglet where she worked in the Liver Building until she was re-drafted to HMS Nightjar (RNAS Inskip) until her discharge on 21st May 1946.
