yeah, that's what I meant by "real life Rosie the Riveters". Rosie was a Norman Rockwell painting done to show the strength of the women left behind who stepped up to work in factories and the like, doing jobs men didn't think they could do, when the war was on. And then promptly lost their jobs to the men when they came back.
