The film highlights the wide range of roles available at the time, including air traffic control, radio operations, stores assistants, air mechanics at RAF Lossiemouth, and range assessors. It also follows stewards and officer stewards in training, offering an authentic look at the skills and responsibilities behind each trade.

Viewers are shown the leisure and social opportunities Wrens enjoyed: horse riding, amateur dramatics, canoeing, and time spent exploring life in Portsmouth. The film also touches on the international aspect of WRNS service, with postings to Gibraltar and Tangier.

A detailed look at WRNS officer training at Greenwich, along with the proud passing out parade, completes this rare glimpse into the women who helped support Royal Navy operations during the Cold War.
