Hello FRiends,
I am researching some information for another book (this one dealing w/D-Day and the Homefront)
Try as I might, I have not been able to find any information regarding civilian wages during war time. I can find all the charts and pretty graphs taking about a as a percentage of this, that, and the but I will be darned if I can find listed in terms of dollars per hour/day, etc for various occupations.
I am particularly interested in ship building in the SF Bay Area. Wages differences between male/female and black/white. This is not a sociological book, but those bits of information are important in knowing and describing the various characters.
I thank you in advance in steering me in the right direction for my research.
Sincerely,
abigkahuna
Wow, the only good story I ever heard about the safari jacket.
You must’ve gone to Scott AFB, like I did.
