With the United States involved in World War I, the men of the United States were off fighting across seas. This caused a shortage in the labour force in the home front of The United States causing the Women to fill the gaps in the factories. There was also a need for increased production of war time goods. However, the work place was not the only place that women would step in and show that they are ready for action, almost 30,000 women joined the armed forces. Despite trying to help their country, the women who joined the armed forces were still discriminated against, yet they all pulled through and carried out what needed to be done to make their country successful. Without the women of our country the United States would have not faired as well as it did with its entry into WWI.
