WWII Hero Anna Mae Robertson of the All-Black, All-Female Six Triple Eight Dies at 101

Anna Mae Robertson, a member of the legendary Six Triple Eight battalion, the only all-Black, all-female unit deployed overseas during World War II, has passed away at 101. The Milwaukee community honored her remarkable life earlier this year during a heartfelt celebration at Tabernacle Community Baptist Church.

“Mother Anna Robertson was part of the 6888 all-women of color postal battalion unit who served in World War II,” said Pastor Donna Childs. “Their motto was ‘no mail, low morale.’” The Six Triple Eight was tasked with clearing a two-year backlog of military mail. They were given six months, but completed it in just three, setting a historic record.

U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, who championed legislation to award the unit a Congressional Gold Medal, remembered Robertson as a hometown hero. “I am deeply saddened to learn of Ms. Anna Mae Roberston’s passing… I am thankful that my constituent, Ms. Robertson, was able to receive her flowers while she could still smell them.”

With recognitions from Gov. Tony Evers and the NAACP, Anna Mae Robertson’s trailblazing life continues to inspire generations.

She may be gone, but her legacy still delivers.
