For decades, Julia Parsons maintained that she worked a quiet, ordinary desk job during World War II. But her job was anything but ordinary. Parsons is a Veteran of the Navy’s all-female WAVES unit, one of thousands of women whose work decrypting Japanese and German communications played a pivotal role in helping the Allies win the war.
