Women In STEM Of WWII - The Real “Rosie Riveters”

Women in STEM of WWII - The real “Rosie Riveters”

In most countries women were not permitted to fight on the front lines of the war. Instead, they supported the war effort by learning, training and taking up jobs usually held by men.

These women did a lot more than rivet, they designed, built and tested thousands of aircraft in factories across Canada and the US. Prior to the war, women would have been mostly banned from taking up such jobs.

I find listening to the Final Fantasy music incredibly soothing, somehow. Always. It makes me happy. Thank you, Nobuo Uematsu.

Quite possibly my favorite #alkalinetrio lyric. One of my favorite love songs :) Even being romantically jaded now I’ll never not be in love with this song :) Thanks @hellomspoison for sharing! I think @tcftbl will love this too!
