• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The model who posed for one of WW2's most iconic images has passed away.

Thanks for posting OBIO. I have a coffee cup with 'Rosie the Riveter' lithographed on it. God bless Geraldine:USA-flag:. No doubt about it,...she showed that 'can-do' spirit that infected workers throughout the US during WWII. I could easily see her punching in rivets on P-38's at Lockheed. Or on a Liberty ship.
Makes one wonder if this country is producing anymore 'Rosie the Riveter' types.....
