World War II involved global conflict on an unprecedented scale; the absolute urgency of mobilizing the entire population made the expansion of the role of women inevitable.

Women also worked in factories, munitions plants and farms, and also drove trucks, provided logistic support for soldiers and entered professional areas of work that were previously the preserve of men. In the Allied countries thousands of women enlisted as nurses serving on the front lines. Thousands of others joined defensive militias at home and there was a great increase in the number of women serving for the military itself, particularly in the Soviet Union’s Red Army.</p><p><a href="http://www.thevintagenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Women-in-World-War-II-1.jpg?4a3a03"><img src="https://www.thevintagenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Women-in-World-War-II-1.jpg?4a3a03" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p>Two women conduct marksmanship training at Roosevelt High School, Los Angeles, Calif., circa August 1942.
