Today, we look back at a historic unit: The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion.

The 6888th also known as the “Six-Triple Eight" was the first and only all-Black Female Women Army Corps unit to be deployed overseas during #WWII.

“No Mail, Low Morale.”

The 6888th were assigned to Birmingham England, Rouen, France, and Paris, France during #WorldWarII.

Their mission was to clear several years of backlogged mail in the European Theater of Operations.

The women of the 6888th worked with male and female French civilians and with German POWs.

They encountered a backlog of undelivered mail dating back as far as two to three years which again would take an estimated six months to process.
