My mama was “Rosie the Naval Fuse Plant worker”.
She will be 95 in June.

Just like Milagro posted, it turns out that there were a number of Rosie’s around the country. In the days before national instant news, etc., it was good publicity to have various women identified. We have a Rosie in our church, too. She’s also 90. Worked in the Tulsa McDonald Douglas plant. She was tiny and went into the crevices of bombers under construction to back up rivets and retrieve dropped tools. She overcame her fear of tight spaces and the dark to do it!

Keefe was very petite, and Rockwell decided to exacerbate her arms and shoulders to make them very large and broad.

Who writes this kind of junk? Is it outsourced to helpdesks in Mumbai?

“Exacerbate” her arms? Methinks the writer needs a dictionary.

The image shows Keefe’s Rosie wearing work overalls while also holding onto a rivet gun as she stands on a copy of Mein Kampf, the autobiographical manifesto that Adolf Hitler wrote and was published in 1925, which outlined his plans for Nazi Germany. The entire background of the picture is an American flag waving.


Today you would have terrorist William Ayers standing on a American Flag on a magazine cover on 9/11
That did happen and has only gotten worse.
