However, woman munition workers
in government plants decided some
time ago that the sensible, sanitary,
safe and patriotic thing to do was to
wear uniforms.
AS a result they wear a distinctive
uniform with an insignia to denote
that the War Department recognizes
them as an important part Of the
military organization. The safety
features which characterize this uni
form, making it practicable for wear
at work which involves danger either
from the operation of machinery or
the handling of explosive powders,
were designed by a. committee of
woman workers at the Frankford
