"Whether it was by volunteering on the home front, serving in the military or working on production lines, women were definitely America's secret weapon during World War II. Before the Second World War, women were viewed mainly as wives and mothers. But during the war, that all changed. See how in Women of World War II, a special collection of 13 National Archives films, including one featuring Eleanor Roosevelt"--Container.
