The law that established the Womenâs Auxiliary Army Corps (WAAC) gave WAACs an official status and a salary but few of the benefits granted to male soldiers. In July 1943, after thousands of women had enlisted, the U.S. Army dropped the âauxiliaryâ designation, and from that time on members of the Womenâs Army Corps received full U.S. Army benefits. Sixteen thousand women who had joined as WAACs were belatedly granted veteransâ benefits in 1980.
