It’s WWII and women are going to work.

They ate in mess halls, lived in dorms, survived termination winds, and stuck together to boost morale.

Employed on a top-secret government project women worked as telephone operators, nurses, and waitresses. Some also worked as lab technicians and, of course, as secretaries.

​Hear their stories as they rose to the occasion - keeping their hair neat, their nails clean, and their typewriters dusted and well oiled!
