Fisherwomen Tug of War - Women at War WWII

The coastal women of wartime Britain didn't let the men down. They were there to help in any way necessary — hauling boats, mending nets, and keeping the fishing industry alive while the men were away at war.

As author Kathryn J. Atwood wrote in Women Heroes of World War II:

“…most of these women — the famous and the obscure — had one thing in common: they did not think of themselves as heroes. They followed their consciences, saw something that needed to be done, and they did it. And all of them helped win a war, even though many of them paid the ultimate price for their contribution.”
