Summary: A recruiting appeal for Women's Royal Army Corps Territorials.
Description: The film and commentary explain the opportunities available (eg to learn to touch-type or to drive), the sort of work to be done (signals, vehicle servicing and driving, cooking), the amount of time to be devoted to TA activities (evenings, weekend and summer camps), and the recreational and social side. The fact that the work is paid is mentioned, but not stressed - the appeal is made in other terms "The army knows quite well that this type of life suits some better than others, but for the right girl its grand and the WRAC territorials need volunteers. Why not you?"
