Women pilots of World War II inspired generations
Carol Brinton Selfridge, 92 and a member of the Women Airforce Service Pilots Class 44-5, and her grandaughter, Lt. Col. Christy Kayser-Cook, share a moment during the reception to honor women civilian pilots who flew with the Women Airforce Service Pilots at the Women in Military Service for America Memorial March 9, 2010, at Arlington National Cemetery, Va. The reception followed a wreath-laying ceremony and both were part of a two-day event in which all pilots will receive the Congressional Gold Medal at the U.S. Capitol.
