6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion
The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, nicknamed the "Six Triple Eight", was a unit of the US Women's Army Corps (WAC) that managed postal services. The only Black and multi-ethnic WAC unit sent overseas during World War II, the 6888th quickly cleared years-long backlogs of undelivered mail to troops in the European Theater of Operations (ETO). In 2019, the U.S. Army awarded the 6888th a Meritorious Unit Commendation.
