WWII Women's Recruiting Posters


Displayed here for your viewing are more of the most eye-catching posters that abounded in the '40s - from the National Archives. Ironically women didn't really need these glamorous posters to entice them to join. Over four hundred thousand women accepted the challenge and served North America in uniform in WWII. Note the Canadian poster as well.

Interestingly this partcular poster ended up as a cigarette ad somewhere along the way.
