During World War II, over 216,000 women were drafted into the WAAC (the army branch for women) and the WAVEs(the navy branch for women). Women who were not a part of the army stayed and often took over their husbands jobs.

A little of both. While some would have you believe that all women were upset about having to give up their jobs when the GI's came home that is simply not true. Many were very happy to become full time housewives and fit into the new suburbia that came about after the war. Some however, did find that they missed the independence that came with working and making your own way and returned to the work force.
