Always stop to view the B24 Liberator bomber exhibit.
My mother was a " Rosie Riveter" at the Consolidated Aircaft Factory in San Diego., in 1942.
She installed the cleco clips on the aluminum body sheets around the waist gunner positions on the bomber body.
My father was in Marine Corps training nearby at the time.
Mom., like the other women, wore pants and a plain work uniform and head scarves to keep their hair safely tucked in.
I have a couple of pictures of her in the work uniform somewhere.

Mother-in-Law worked on bombers in San Diego during War Two, at the Rohr Industries plant. Apparently building engine nacelles for bombers. Beyond that she didn't recall. A little poking around suggests they were probably for B-25s.
It has an amazing concentration of mostly military aircraft, hanging from the ceiling, parked cheek to jowl on the floor, certainly worth your time but as you see here not something you can cover in a couple hours.
Had a similar experience at the Infantry Museum at Fort Benning a few years ago when my son graduated Infantry Basic. We did get to see the movie “Hornets Nest” though, that was great.
