"In addition to being the first female pilot to die in combat" How is ferrying a plane in Texas considered combat? 132.22.254.237 20:25, 28 March 2007 (UTC)Scuba

I concur. None of the external links/sources refers to it as 'in combat', either, so I have reworded it 'on active duty' in accordance with the listed sources. Maralia 05:24, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Far-fetched claim

I deleted the part about her being "the first Tennessee service person to die in World War II," which is patently false. Fort died on March 21, 1943. Obviously, Tennessee "service persons" had died in the War before then. — J M Rice 06:49, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
