A big honor today for some talented civilian women who served this country by flying military missions during World War II. As we told you last night their service went unrecognized for decades. Today Congress *awarded the WASP its highest civilian honor, the Congressional Gold Medal. *Of the more than one thousand who flew, only three hundred of them are still living, and most were at the capital for the ceremony.
