Great WWII share. I knew that women did many of the traditional “man” jobs during WWII, but I was unaware of the LumberJills.

Fantastic story.

I think the bottom line is that we will step up to whatever we have to do... and that's not just women... I think most Americans will do what they have to do in times of disaster
