SWONs: Shipbuilding Women of the Navy

    Improve listing Presented by

Have fun coloring in a SWON Activity book or “Riveting” a ribbon bracelet. See if you can build a circuit to turn on a light or tap out Morse Code. It is a hands-on way to learn about the 8,000 women who worked in this Navy Yard during World War II. They did all kinds of jobs: welding, painting, twisting rope, and driving a fork lift, to help win the war.
