U.S. Navy Waves - 1940's

            I'd love to know what this get together was about.  The woman on the left, with the dark lipstick, looks very much like my mother, Mercedes.  The fourth woman on the right, looking right at the camera, looks like my cousin Lorraine.
Description of the chevrons on the sleeve of the Wave's uniforms.
One chevron was 3rd class Petty Officer.
Two chevrons was 2nd class Petty Officer.
Three chevrons was 1st class Petty Officer.
