During World War Two many working-age men were drafted into the military to fight on the frontlines. This led to a shortage of workers and increase demand for laborers to fill their vacancies. Millions of women across the country rolled-up their sleeves and joined the workforce doing jobs stereotypically done by men. This movement not only shaped the future for our countries women in the workforce, but the fabric of The United States as we know it. The Warhawk Air Museum is holding an annual event acknowledging the significance of this time period in our nations history called Rosie The Riveter Day!
