Yes, there is a book that is fairly widely available called something like "Fraulein" which account the autobiographical stories of many woman during the time of the Third Reich, including a few who served in auxiliary units or orgs of some sort.

Found the book, it's:

Frauen: German Women Recall the Third Reich, by Alison Owings. New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press, 1993.

Not sure how truly valuable the work is though, but it does cover extensively the topic in question. You might want to find a copy at a local bookstore and look it over first.
