My Mom was a Rosie the Riveter. She passed away October 2020 at age 98! Thank you Madea, we miss you!❤👑
These woman are hero’s as much as us veterans. They made the machines to fight in the war! With out their helps it would have been almost impossible! Thank you ladies! We are all honored to call you Americans and hero’s to not only America, but the world!
These are real women
Proudly showing there pictures when there were in there prime 😊😂😂😂
The world needs to unite and stand together to never again allow any country to invade, annex or conquer any other country. If you attack one, you attack us all. We need to stand with Ukraine including with sanctions and with sending them all weapons they need to defend themselves. Generally, and if Russia wasn't so unhinged in threatening nuclear war if we defend Ukraine, we should also establish no fly zones over any nation invaded upon request as well.
Other than such defensive emergencies though, the world needs to stop all international weapons sales and supply. We also need to demand that America closes all 1,000+ non U.S. soil military bases and ops in 135+ countries and to end any other international military bases. Most countries are partially or completely sold out to weapons industry kickback corruption blood money and cannot be trusted. We need to shift from militarizing the world for ''peace'' (profits), to demilitarizing a united planet for actual peace.
The way the world unites against Russia’s imperialist invasion of Ukraine will send a clear message to China as it relates to Taiwan for example also.
This unity will make nuclear weapons as a deterrent unnecessary also which will greatly help us to finally end nukes worldwide. We could and should end world hunger with but a portion of the savings too as an example of what a great leap towards world peace this would represent.

WOW SUPER AMERICAN HEROS QUEENS RULE I SALUTE THANK YOU NBC AMAZING REPORT AND VERRY APRECIATED
NBC YOU GO CRAZYYY
0:25 I'd love to fart on them one by one in that row
War is propaganda
They are honoring someone who fought against Nazis while supporting todays Nazis? Awkward.
Hey , Group of ‘Rosie the Riveters’ Can you make sure I am better than okay before the end of the year ? Wish I had $100000000000000 was leading and successful
the heros at home
Pretty good acknowledgment.
However, this is just a Biden administration ploy to “show” they care about women and subsequently trying to solidify “the woman vote” for the next election. Transparent and pathetic.
Nice story for once,thanks
Diversity is not a weakness, it is a strength. It was proven, why was it not accepted?
Lol none of theses women sacrificed as much as men in the same era
NOW THIS IS A NEWS VIDEO WORTH WATCHING!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY SOME ALL AMERICAN HEROES!!!!!!!!!!! ITS SO NICE TO SEE PEOPLE WHO STOOD UP WHEN TIMES WERE TOUGH AND FOUGHT BACK INSTEAD OF CRY ABOUT WHICH GENDER THEY WERE!!!!!!!!!!
My grandmother was a Rosie the riveter. She was a butt welder. And these awesome women would know exactly what she did. My grandfather built tanks. They were my favorite people on the planet.
It is DISGUSTING, that it took SCOTUS reversing human rights for this story to come out. SHAME ON YOU.
These women are awesome.
The debt of gratitude that we owe to these ladies probably cannot be paid in full.
My mom was a WAC,..and cooked for the guys…
I'm so proud of her and what she did for the country…
May her sweet soul rest in peace….
And may these other ladies get all the love and respect that they deserve..
They have my eternal admiration and appreciation.
❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤
Absolutely fantastic job, ladies!
Thank u for all u did.your contribution u made in the second world war 2 won the war.the sacrifices and losses were not in vain.i honour u.from canada,
My maternal grandmother was a Rosie the Riveter at Willow Run Michigan! Go grandma! May you RIP. I miss you so much.
The riveters are great.. but we can't forget the welders that built the liberty ships also.. i grew up around several women that worked the Brunswick yard.. my gf's grandmother was one of them.. and remembering the suffragettes is something every free thinking female should celebrate.. some of those women laid down their lives for you to have equal rights.. shouldn't have taken all that but those were different times.. we can't forget that stuff man..
I Predict Biden will do the same thing as G.Bush did in Europe. Take a close looks on how WW1& WW2 started. WW3 will happen with N.Korea and Russian, Iran, China.
To obtain financial freedom, one must either be a business owner, an investor or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.
I understand
Thank you Hero's!
My grandmother would be in this group if she didn't die of cancer from the factories. But my uncle did win us the pacific theater with 8 aces!
