EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history during the Second World War. Taken by Howard Hollem, it showcases NYA employees receiving training at the Assembly and Repair Department of the U. S. Naval Air Base in Corpus Christi, Texas. The image is filled with a sense of purpose and determination as both men and women work together to contribute to the war effort. In an era when gender roles were more defined, this photograph challenges traditional norms by depicting women actively engaged in engineering tasks alongside their male counterparts. The scene depicts a bustling workshop where machinery hums with activity. Men and women can be seen operating band saws and other tools, showcasing their technical skills and dedication to supporting naval warfare efforts. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment, reminding us of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during wartime. As we gaze upon this snapshot from 1942, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how ordinary citizens played a crucial role in shaping America's military might. It serves as a testament to the resilience and unity that prevailed throughout the country during one of its most challenging periods. Howard Hollem's photograph not only documents an important chapter in our nation's heritage but also celebrates the contributions made by both men and women who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes for victory on all fronts.
