Rosie the Riveter was the star of a campaign aimed at recruiting female workers for defense industries during World War II. She became perhaps the most iconic image of working women and most successful recruitment tool in American History. American women entered the workforce in extraordinary numbers during the War\, as widespread male enlistment left gaping holes in the industrial labor force. Between 1940 and 1945\, the female percentage of the U.S. workforce increased from 27 percent to nearly 37 percent.\n\nThe Boyertown Museum of Historic Vehicles presents\, "A Rosie Outlook: WWII & the Girls with a Star-Spangled Heart". This exhibit will feature Boyertown built WWII vehicles as well as a Rosie the Riveter Rose Garden\, which will be planted in front of our Hafer Building.
