EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Alfred T Palmer in 1943, we are transported back to the Vultees Nashville division in Tennessee during World War II. The image showcases two remarkable women diligently capping and inspecting tubing that is crucial for the production of the "Vengeance" dive bomber. The "Vengeance" (A-31) aircraft initially designed for the French, was later adopted by both the R. A. F. and U. S. Army Air Forces. This single-engine, low-wing plane boasted six machine guns of varying calibers and carried a crew of two brave men. Within this snapshot, we witness these skilled blue-collar workers contributing their expertise to support America's war effort. Their dedication and attention to detail highlight their essential role within the airplane industry at that time. The photo captures an intimate moment inside the bustling aircraft plant as these women meticulously inspect every inch of tubing before it is integrated into the final product. Their commitment to quality control ensures that each "Vengeance" dive bomber meets rigorous standards. Alfred T Palmer's lens not only immortalizes these unsung heroes but also provides us with a glimpse into a pivotal era in American history. As we admire this still image from over seven decades ago, let us remember and honor those who played vital roles on our home front during times of conflict - their contributions forever etched in our nation's heritage.
