6.+Women’s+Role+in+Industry

Dear hubby, I miss you very much. I hope you are doing good off at war. A lot has changed here in the states while you have been gone. I have been working long hours making plains for the war. Surprising isn’t it! Now in America, “more then 6 million of these new workers were woman”(Danzer et al, 556). The jobs that us woman now do are way more than you think too. Since all you men left for the war, us woman have been “demonstrating their competence in what were traditionally "male" jobs”(Woman in industry). But I didn’t just go to work for the companies. I wanted them to prove to me that they really wanted me. And that exactly what they did. The fictional character Rosie the Riveter came out and that caught my eye. He was the ideal worker; pretty, loyal and hard working (Rosie the Riveter). This is what got me to work for the companies. Other then that nothing changed. The kids are doing well and little Tommy is walking now. Cant wait to see you! Love wiffey Danzer, Gerald A., et al. __The Americans__. Page 573. McDougal Littell Inc., 2003.
