The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Women's Reserve, also known as the SPARS (SPARS was the acronym for "Semper Paratus—Always Ready"), was the women's branch of the United States Coast Guard Reserve. It was established by the United States Congress and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on 23 November 1942. This law authorized the acceptance of women into the reserve as commissioned officers and at the enlisted level for the duration of World War II plus six months. Its purpose was to release officers and men for sea duty and to replace them with women at shore stations. Dorothy C. Stratton was appointed director of the SPARS with the rank of lieutenant commander and later promoted to captain.

  • SPARS war der Spitzname der weiblichen Angehörigen der US-Küstenwache. Die weibliche Reserveorganisation (United States Coast Guard Women´s Reserve) wurde auf Grund des Eintritts der Vereinigten Staaten in den Zweiten Weltkrieg am 23. November 1942 mit dem Gesetz „Public Law 773“ von Präsident Franklin Delano Roosevelt gegründet. Erste Leiterin war Kapitänleutnant (später Kapitän zur See) Dorothy Stratton. SPARS ist abgeleitet vom Akronym für das Motto der Küstenwache semper paratus – always ready (dt.: immer bereit). (de)
