During WWII, the U.S. promoted the capabilities of women through their "Rosie the Riveter" posters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter). Too bad more of that attitude didn't stick when the "boys returned". From a business perspective, I have to wonder how the U.S. economy withstood the end of the war. The troops returned, flooding the market with labor and at the same time, much of what was produced during the war had no market in peace-time.
