Ok here's a bonanza of info, scroll all the way down to the bottom. they go 
alphabetically the United States is on the bottom, has some from 1930s'. 
Interesting, one shows gals in uniforms that look like Nurses uni's ,as being 
an RN was a requirement early on to be a stew.
Sounds like a  kind of party...

My cousin is president of the China National Aviation Corporation
(CNAC )  she has what I think is a fun idea for the reunion this
year.  She thinks we should dress as stewardesses for the reunion.
http://www.cnac.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_National_Aviation_Corporation
She  I typically tend bar as the pilots, navigators, ground team (now
in their 80s  90s) swap lies  do a little hangar flying.

Does anyone know of sources for pictures, patches, pins, patterns 
accessories for the ladies' uniforms?  At this point we'd start with
most any 30s stews' uniforms  improve them later.

This is a fun, historical organization consisting of people who worked
the Hump route in the late 30s  early 40s, their family members 
aviation history buffs.  CNAC was a supported China by flying supplies
into Yunnan before the US actively joined the allies WWII.

Thanks all,

melody, thank you !
The CNAC thing is a party in 2 weeks. It's a reunion for the (mostly)
Chinese  American teams that worked in the Pacific theater before the
US joined WWII.   People from other nationalities were involved, too.
www.CNAC.org has more about the event.
