A poster comes to life. Meet an American soldier of Production. George Woolslayer, thirty-two-years-old, is an experienced welder at one of Allegheny-Ludlum's steel mills. His uniform is a pair of overalls and a welder's mask. Not reveille but a battered alarm clock awakens him six days a week at 6 A.M. There are no service stripes on those welder's sleeves he wears, but his part in the winning of this war is as important as any front-line soldier's. George Woolslayer is out to win the battle of the home front, the battle to keep America's soldiers on the fighting front supplied with the weapons of war. Allegheny-Steel, Pittsburgh
