    Florence Ebersole Smith Finch (1915-2016) joined the Coast Guard Women's Reserve, SPARs, in 1945 after arriving in the United States from the Philippines where she worked as a civilian stenographer for the Office of Army Intelligence during World War II. She later received the Medal of Freedom for risking her life to secretly furnish money and supplies to American prisoners after Japan took control of Manila, Philippines. (U.S. Coast Guard photo)
