Women's Auxiliary Army Corps - 0.1 shilling

This stamp commemorates the Women's Auxiliary Army Corps, established in 1962 to assist Somalia's armed forces in a variety of support and administrative functions. The formation of auxiliary military units represented an important step in building national defense capabilities after the country's independence in 1960.

The stamp reflects efforts to involve women in state institutions and public service while supporting the modernization of Somalia's military structure. It serves as a symbol of national unity, civic responsibility, and the contribution of women to the development of the country's defense and governmental organizations during the early years of independence.
