Women in wwi
During WWI over 6 million men enlisted to go and fight overseas, when they left their jobs had to be filled, so women had to take over these jobs, women had many well-known roles such as nurses, factory workers, sewing bandages, and selling war bonds, shipyards and spies. The Women's Royal Air Force was created during this, which is where women worked on planes as mechanics. By 1917 68% of women had changed jobs since the war began, 16% had moved out of domestic service, 22% that were unemployed in 1914 now had work, and 23% had changed to different factories.
