In Memoriam for Carolyn Guertin, Honored by Glendale National Cemetery
Carolyn Guertin was one of the first individuals to sign up for the Civil Air Patrol when she was 11 years old. She was first in line but they preferred signing up a male first. She became a pilot and was active in her squad until she passed away at 90 years old.
