Ruth M. Briggs
Ruth Mary Briggs (December 7, 1910 – July 2, 1985) was born in Hopkinton, Rhode Island. She served as a lieutenant colonel in the Women's Army Corps (WAC) and as secretary to General Walter Bedell Smith.〔Louis Galambos et al. The Papers of Dwight D. Eisenhower: The Chief of Staff: Vol. VII. Baltimore. Johns Hopkins University Press. 1978. p. 1218.〕
Briggs graduated officer candidate school at Fort Des Moines and was commissioned as a second lieutenant on August 29, 1942. She was one of the first five WAC officers sent to North Africa in 1942. Though they were rescued, Briggs and the four other WACs received an inglorious welcome to the North African theater as the ship upon which they were sailing was torpedoed and sunk during the night.〔J. Kemp McLaughlin. The Mighty Eighth in WWII. University Press of Kentucky. 2006. p. 38.〕
In 1966 Briggs was the Republican nominee for U.S. Senator for Rhode Island. She was defeated by Democrat Claiborne Pell.〔Hope Chamberlin. A Minority of Members: Women in the U.S. Congress. Praeger Publishers. 1973. p. 302.〕
