The situations described below. Taking on this perspective, compose a letter that includes at least five factual illustrations of life during the war. Number, underline, italicize, or somehow indicate your factual illustrations in the letter. Post this letter as a thread in the forum.
You are a woman whose husband was drafted. To make ends meet, you did what many American women, particularly those in more urban areas, did during the war. You got a job working in a factory which previously only hired men. During the war, the factory made armaments for the war. Now that the war is suddenly over and your husband is now home, he wants you to stop working outside the home. Write a letter to your best friend telling her how you felt about working and how you feel now about quitting. What are the pros and cons of the situation? Give both sides a hearing and then decide what you will do.
