    Hi All,
    I'm hoping to figure out what the saying is on the back of this piece - French I believe, but I can't make out all the letters. Not much information on her, she was a Squadron Officer and was gazetted for the MBE in 1945, one of 8 women in the RCAF. Any ideas appreciated.
    thanks for looking:)
