 Webmaster's Note: My mum, Pauline
Hebb (nee Cunliffe), is a
British Wren (W.R.N.S.), who presently lives in Canada (see Wren Association
of Toronto , below). It is because of her sacrifice, and the hardships
of war that she, and many others went through, that I have built this
site. I have begun to receive some stories of other wonderful WRNS,
which will be shared here.
This site is a celebration of the lives of these women, then and now,
the comradery they shared, the troubles they endured, and the legacy of
freedom that they have given us. Although its subject is war, this site
will attempt to concentrate more on the positive aspects of their
situation, their contribution, their friendships, their strength and
courage.
This site is for my mum, and is dedicated to her. For her past
service as a Wren, and her present involvement with the Wren
Association of Toronto. Please read all about the wonderful women of
this Association.

Announcing
the 2010 Canadian Naval Centennial Rose. The
Wren Association of Toronto, along with Wren Associations across
Canada, chose this rose developed by Agriculture Canada and grown
exclusively by J.C. Bakker Nurseries to celebrate the Canadian Naval
Centennial, 1910-2010. Ceremonial plantings will take place across
Canada in the commemorative year 2010 and onward, in locations of
naval significance, attended by Wrens, other Naval Veterans, serving
Naval personnel and local officials.
