this is great this helped me a lot with my history fair!

who were the 8 trolls who down thumbed this?

in order to make America great again we need to remember who we were. this is one of the greatest videos I have ever seen. Awesome job.

03:27 : Well, ain't she a beaut' ? :-)

@emmthreejonny Thank you so much!

@MrCraig1930 wow! That is wonderful. Is there any footage of that?

@marielbeeee Thank you! I used Sony Vegas Movie Studio.

Proof that "strength" comes from manufacturing today we don't produce anything guess what happens

This is such a great video! What program did you use to make this?

I salute all the Rosie's of WWII and the Greatest Generation. What all of them did is not only commendable, admirable and as this clip alludes to, is the greatest collective achievement of all time. We owe a lot to them, and as they all slip off into history may future generations never forget who they were and what they did.

Thank you for this tribute! My grandmother worked in the shipyards in Wisconsin...a tough lady with a heart as big as the ships she welded in!

I encourage all women who were Rosies (or their children or husbands on their behalf) to become members of the American Rosie the Riveter Association. There's a website with more info...TH-cam won't allow a link to be put in here, but the website is RosietheRiveter and the extension is dot net. I also encourage Rosies to share their stories...write them down for future generations to learn about.

You're very welcome. I agree these women are such an inspiration...and so are you!

my grandma worked at willow run and was a riveter. she has told me a few stories about working there, Its very interesting .

Eastern aircraft in Trenton NJ. Lots of Rosie the Riveters worked there.

There's a woman named Lola Weixel in the1980 film/documentary by Connie Field called the Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter - is this the movie you're referring to?. I just saw on Amazon that there's a used VHS copy of it for sale. Hope this helps! By the way, just curious about what you said about short skirts since there aren't any in my video - just slacks and below-the-knee dresses. :)

My grandmother was a "Rosie", the greatest person I have ever known. Great Video!

:O I wish America had those cool propaganda like commercials. They were cool. :P

Great vid! Thanks for it :D Rosies 4 ever!!! <3

Incredible story. My heartfelt thanks and admiration goes out to your mother and father for the contributions and sacrifices they made for our country.

I appreciate that very much, Ladyinpink5. Thanks for watching! :)

You're welcome and thank you for the compliment. :) I'm interested in knowing if there were other Rosie the Riveters who became famous... if anyone has any info.

Thank you for all the nice comments. It's nice to know so many share my interest in Rosie the Riveter - even hosting an R&R theme party....I love it! :)

This posting, & the accompanying footage & overdub commentary, is just one fabulous, inspiring piece of work. A GREAT posting !! All you young generation of kids out there NOW .. aged anywhere from 16 to say 25 .. this history is GOOD for you to know about & to absorb. THINK ABOUT what you see & hear in videos like these. It may just help you to realise .. just a wee bit more .. just how good you've got it in these modern times - and what your families went thru, for your freedom.

In 2000, the Rosie the Riveter Memorial was officially dedicated in Point Richmond, CA. I attended the ceremony. Lots of "Rosies" were there. The weather was nice. I was very proud of history being remembered.

Funny how about 5 years later women's labor and working rights when back to the home. All rosies became housewifes again. It wasn't until the sixties women became to speak up about the backlash.

Thank you for such a wonderful video!

Amen.

I love this video :D I must recreate some of these hair-styles as well... hehe

one word to sum up this video, PERFECT. It is a PERFECT tribute. thanks for making it

pisses me off how schools barely even recognize Pearl Harbor anymore. No moment of silence or short speech, as they do with 9/11NOTHING....And god forbid any of my tard classmates actually know what day it is.

my mother riveted on the B-24 and another plane, I believe it was a B-29, she had the same woman as a bucker on both planes,(a buckers works on the back of the rivet, inside the plane) HoooRaaa!!

Thank you! I'm also very intrigued with that decade...the cars, the way people dressed, the movies and music, etc. But yes, I'm sure those were very tough times. As horrible as the war was, I like how everyone made the best of things and pulled together.

Very nice! I'm fascinated with the 40's (I'm 53, so born late! LOL), but those were tough times, too!

This is a great video

I appreciate everyone's kind comments. I'm so glad the video is being used to educate people about the contributions these women made during WWII.

You're very welcome - I'm so glad you liked it!
