100-year-old World War II veteran treated to ride Navy helicopter By FOX 35 News Staff Published  article WINTER PARK, Fla. - Ima Black was able to fulfill a lifelong wish with the help of the United States Navy.  The 100-year-old World War II veteran, and resident at The Mayflower at Winter Park, was treated to a ride in a Navy helicopter. Black only has to ask the U.S. Navy for something and her wish is granted.   She has a wonderful working relationship with the Navy because of her service and that of her late husband, Delbert D Black. She joined the Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Services (WAVES) in the first year that this Navy branch was established. The female members were accorded a status comparable to that of male members of the reserve, unlike the Women s Army Corps (WAC) unit in the Army. Ima remained a member until the close of the war.
