I will put my topical header as Keeping the peace and picking up the pieces. During this time women really fought against having a war and tried to push for peace. They also had to pick up for all the work the soldiers had before they left for the war.

I am putting my header as Working Women during War. This is my header because during the World War II, we say a huge increase in the women working on the warfront and the home front. These women were a huge contributing factor during this time because of all their hard work.

During the world war I, there was I think two different kinds of women, one who were fighting against the war and hoping for peace. They also fought more for the suffrage of women. Then there were the women that directly helped with the war, there were Telephone operators, or nurses. But they were there during the wartime and helping with it.

During the WWI a lot of women were really against the idea of fighting and war. There were so many women that were against this that a group of women came together and called themselves the Womens peace party. They met in Washinton DC and protested the war. They really pushed for peaceful resolution during the wartime. They showed the US a lot of what people were thinking, and got into some politics during this time as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Like I said with the Topical header, but there was a lot more working women during this time. They were on the home front helping pick up the pieces, or in the war aid and fighting the war. But they also had a lot of issues that arose for them through their work.

Someone that became a big role model or inspiration for women, was Jeanette Rankin, She was the first women in the United States to go into Congress. She was also a very big pacifist and talked against the WWI. She worked with the Womens peace party as well. But really the big takeaway of this is that she showed so many women that you can make it to office and keep your beliefs. She provided support for those that fought against the United States go into WWI.

Something that the government set up to help working women during the WWI was the Women Committee of the Council of National Defense. This was a committee lead for women by women. The committee focused on organize and guiding the women who were helping do work during the war. They provided tasks that needed to be done, for example if a certain city needed volunteers to help with war effort, they would send some women there.

During the WWI, many farmers left to go join the fight in the war. That meant the United States needed people to take over farming. This was were the Womans Land Army came in, they did all the agricultural work that was left while farmers fought. They were given the more feminized name, Farmerettes. There were thousands of women that worked full time in almost every state. This showed people that women can do the work that is typically led by males.

# data[].attributes.body
For women something they really dominated in during this time was nursing. Specifically in the red cross. During the war there were obvious many people that were injured and they were in dire need of nurses. This is where women were able to really step in and say Step back, we got this. There were 20,000 women that went all over the world to assist and aid men where it was needed. There were in the army and navy corps. There was also the salvation army, there were hundreds of women that went to the front lines to provide clothing, food and spiritual support.

Another thing women helped in the war during, but were not really seen, is Telephone Operator or Hello Girls. They helped bring calls to the right source in a timely manner. They made sure things ran quickly and the right information was delivered. Women had this job because they were a lot calmer and were quicker with the task at hand.

A branch of the military that had a big part of women joining the military was the navy. These women did not really fight on the field, but they helped build machines, operate telephones, worked as chemists and provided medical service, including pharmacy. They were eventually faded out after the war and were known and Yeoman. They mainly replaced the work that men did before the war.

For women soldier, it was really fought in our country not to have women fighting. If a woman was considered a soldier during this time, it was much like WWI, where they were nurses of Telephone operators. But unlike in WWI they were getting more recognition, given awards and even some benefits.

Something that was seen a lot during the World War II was propaganda, especially from Uncle Sam. There were posters encouraging women to stop shopping or helping at the home but help with the army, with things like engineers and nursing. This was something that was not seen during the first world war. This time the Government was specifically looking for women to help the army.

# data[].attributes.body
There was an issue that was also seen was on propaganda about women, was that there were concerned about them distracting soldiers with their beauty. In the propaganda, they showed women with tight figures, big red lips and face full of makeup. There was worry that if women were to help too much, they would distract the fighting soldiers from actually fighting the war.

# data[].attributes.body
On the home front we noticed a BIG increase in women working. There was a lot more women with education they got brought out in the work force. A lot of factories job were open for women to have, and with that there was a 40% increase of women working. There was a 20% increase of Native American women working during this time as well.

# data[].attributes.body
During the World War II, President Roosevelt signed Executive order 8802 which prohibit employers from denying someone a job based on their race, if their employer was working with national defense. With this we saw more African American joining the war front, including some African American women joining Homefront work and helping the war in things like Telephone Operating. There was also the Bracero program that was started during this time, which brought Mexican workers to come into the country to work.

# data[].attributes.body
There was some sexuality that began to rise during the wartime on the homefront, specifically for women. There was the issue of victory girls. The Victory Girls were dubbed young women who wanted to congratulate and aid the male soldiers for there work by offering sexual favors. There was an increase in possible Lesbianism because of lot women having to take over more manly jobs, like working in factories, people were starting to question women sexualities, especially since some women lived together and spent a lot of time together.

# data[].attributes.body
There was an increase in marriages and birth rates during World War two, on the Homefront. Right at the beginning of the war there was a HUGE increase in marriages, I believe it was because people were concerned that they would have to join the fight and/or lose their life's. So young couples got married, and quickly babies came along.

For Japanese American Women, there were some of these women who joined the army to help America. After pearl harbor many Japanese American women were taken and put into Internment camps, these camps were very brutal and dangerous for anyone living in them.

During this time, we see the Female Soldier fighting along with men, instead of just providing medical help or keep communication tight. But it is now being seen as a way to express and push toward gender equality. If there is a female soldier that is fighting just the same as a man, but is still a female, then maybe others will see it as equality.

With the number of Female soldiers empowering each other's, there became the concept of Securo-Feminism. The idea that if there are more female soldiers fighting across the world, women in other countries will see these women fighting and feel Liberated to fight for their equality as well. This becomes a problem in some countries that view women differently because of religious or war time beliefs.

There has been a HUGE amount of support given to families, there are groups called the Soldier Family Readiness Group, were families of soldiers and the soldiers can get together and take about the needs that they have, what should be provided and let the soldier connect with their family. It's also a great way for other families to connect with each other. These groups provide a lot of support and assistance to the families.

In other countries where war is continuously being broken out, a lot of local women are captured or stranded. These women are the best source for intel, but because of either religious reasons or fear they will not talk to men. Luckily there are female soldiers who can step in and talk to these women to get intel and learn more about whats going on. This has been such a common occurance since 2000, so Militaries have created groups called the Female Engagement Teams that get intel from these women.

In the military there have been sexual assaults that occur to the female soldiers. In 2005 they created the Sexual Assault and prevention program. Which changed policies for the sexual assaults that did occur. It required mandatory sexual Assault prevention training, appropriate resources and better reporting. This was a huge beneficial change for victims of sexual assault in the military.

In 2010, the military repealed the Dont ask, Dont Tell. Which meant do not show that you are a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and you will not get any consequences. This of course made many people uncomfortable. But in 2010 that was repealed so people can be open about there sexuality, which provides a safer more open space in the military.

Up until 2016, there was a ban on transgender soldier, mostly on Male to female. This banned anyone who was transgender, but some female to male transgender people got through to the military. This ended in 2016 but came back in 2019, then luckily in 2021 in was ended again. So now any transgender person can enlist in the military.
