The Regular Soldier
Short Film (Full Length) – 1966
In this (signals) and similar work, women of the New Zealand Women’s Royal Army Corps, or the WRACs, are able to relieve men for the more strenuous combat duties. The Army gains a lot by having some of its duties performed with a feminine touch.– Narrator
Taking it all in all, the regular soldier of today leads a pretty good life, but he carries a great responsibility: the responsibility of the defence and security of his country.– Narrator
