Oveta Culp Hobby was able to advance women's rights in the military by founding and leading the Women's Army Corps (WAC) during World War II. Under her leadership, women were able to serve in the military in non-combat roles, breaking down traditional gender barriers and paving the way for future generations of women to serve in the armed forces. Hobby's advocacy and determination helped to expand opportunities for women in the military and to challenge stereotypes about women's capabilities in traditionally male-dominated fields.
