There's more than meets the eye in this photo...
Women paint Y connectors for the engines of American warplanes
This photo was not taken at a war plant, but rather at Maryland League for Crippled Children, under subcontract to a Baltimore engineering company for war work.
The young lady forefront in the photo was then 21-year-old Belva Fletcher who was handicapped by progressive paralysis, but still able to do sign up for war work. Next to her is then 25-year-old Henriette Furley, so crippled by arthritis she had to stand to do her job.
That's patriotism.
