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.

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. The qualifying age for officer candidates was between 20 and 50, and they were required to have a college degree, or two years of college and two years of professional or business experience. For enlisted personnel, the qualifying age was between 20 and 36, and they were required to have completed at least two years of high school. Initially African American women were not recruited, however, late in the war five African American women were accepted and served as SPARS. Officer candidates received their indoctrination at Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts and later at the USCG Academy, New London, Connecticut. Enlisted personnel first received their training on several college campuses. Later, their training took place at Palm Beach, Florida, in the Biltmore Hotel that was remodeled for use as a training center. Toward the end of the war, training of enlisted personnel was transferred from Palm Beach to Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn, New York. Women of the SPARS served in every USCG district except Puerto Rico and also served in Hawaii and Alaska. Most officers were general duty officers, and most of the enlisted women performed clerical duties. The SPARS peak strength was approximately 11,000 officers and enlisted personnel.It was inactivated in 1947 but reestablished on a much smaller scale in 1949.Approximately 200 former SPARS reenlisted and served during the Korean War. The majority of them served at the Coast Guard Headquarters in Washington, D.C.In 1973 Congressional legislation ended the Women's Reserve (SPARS) and women were first officially integrated into the active-duty Coast Guard and the Coast Guard Reserve. Female reservists then serving on active duty were given the choice of enlisting in the regular Coast Guard or completing their reserve enlistments. 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). Die Küstenwache benannte zwei ihrer Kutter nach den SPARS, nämlich die USCGC Spar (WLB-403) und die USCGC Spar (WLB-206).
