World War II brought a lot of suffering and hardship to thousands of people. Families were broken up as men were sent up to the front lines to fight for their country, some never to return. Children were sent out of the cities to stay with strangers, away from the bombing. But through all of this, a new role for women began to emerge which was to change their position in society forever. Basically men were sent away to fight for there country. well most of them anyway. this ment that the remaining men that stayed behind worked in factrories ect , but there still wasnt enough help so they brought women into help with all of these jobs such as , joining the RAF , Navy , the land army , women in nursing and in industrys to help build planes ect.
