A poster comes to life. "I know now where we get the stuff for battleships and guns--and even radio parts. And with men like you producing this stuff we need and backing us up, we can't lose this war." Chief Evans speaks to the steelworkers on his visit to an Allegheny-Ludlum mill. Touring the plant, Evans got his initiation into a new battlefront where weapons for the Army and Navy are forged. Welder Woolslayer (standing left) and Sergeant Vineyard stand by after the assistant plant superintendent (seated) introduced Evans to the audience. Allegheny-Ludlum Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

BROKEN PIECES OF EXPERIMENTAL ALLOY

A poster comes to life. "Meet the guys who shoot 'em." George Woolslayer introduces a group of open-hearth furnace men to his poster pals, Evans and Vineyard, who are getting a first-hand view of production for war. Although they knew how to shoot guns and drive jeeps before they came to Allegheny-Ludlum, they're seeing for the first time the kind of Americans who make these things: skilled and semi-skilled workers, tireless men who can work for hours in terrific heat.
