Rosie The Riveter Was Born On This Day In 1920 - Or Not
Rosie The Riveter was born on this day in 1920.
Well, one of them.
And maybe on this day. All of those diet claims about centenarians and their lifestyles could be suspect if so many are fraud or clerical error the data are meaningless. No one is even sure when Rose Will Leigh, the original archetype for "Rosie the Riveter", was born.
The B-24 Liberator bomber consisted of 450,000 parts held together by 360,000 rivets of 550 different sizes. It weighed 18 tons. During World War II, Henry Ford's Willow Run plant in Michigan produced 8,685 of them, thanks to 42,000 employees working around the clock.
