Placing Magazine on Gun
(Original Caption) Women are doing their part to help Uncle Sam defeat the Axis and we see Mrs. Mildred Thomas as she places a magazine on the 20mm airplane cannon. There are 100 women working on the Proving Grounds replacing the men who are released for active combat. These women test guns, drive tanks, handle large cranes and in general, do the work formerly done by the young men of the nation.
