300,000 Women joined the military, Red Cross, civil service jobs and the USO. The rest of the women in the country either joined the war industry work force to build armament or took over their husband's business. Many watched the children of the mothers who worked in the factories. They also volunteer hundreds of hours to raise war bond money, work for the Red Cross rolling bandages or putting together care packages for the POWs and the troops. They also came together as a community to help the widows and others who lost their men in the war. They grew victory gardens. They collect things the war companies needed to make war things. Some women had to farm because their husbands, sons, brothers and uncles left to fight.
