As the ship moves against the pier, English women begin throwing scones to the men. Closeup of one chewing on a scone. After the ship docks, an army officer and a First officer of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC) walk together up a gang plank to the pier. Her cap is the so-called "Hobby Cap" named for Oveta Culp Hobby, the first Commandant of the WAAC, and it bears the insignia of the Rising Eagle (nicknamed the "Walking Buzzard" by WAACs).
