The singer most associated with the civilian band was of course Marion Hutton, one of the famous Hutton Sisters. Hutton tended to sing the up-tempo and novelty tunes. Also, Paula Kelly later joined the Modernaires and contributed a number of vocals.
A few other female singers such as Kay Starr and Dorothy Claire had brief tenures with the band, mostly when Marion Hutton was on maternity leave.
The AAF Orchestra did not have a permanent female vocalist because at that time the military was segregated both racially and sexually. However a number of famous singers made guest appearances, including Dinah Shore, Vera Lynn, and Irene Manning.
