  2. i found out:

    The slogan for the WLA was 'For a healthy, happy job join The Women's Land Army'.

    In the women’s land army the women made bombs and ammo out of pots and pans for solders.

  3. When a siren does off, and the phone lines are brought down by bombs, I would gear up, put the message in my satchel and set off.
    I like parts of my job, since I get out and about, plenty of fresh air and loads of great scenery.

  23. LAND GIRL JOB BY FAITH


    1.They had to bribe the children to do things. One of the objects they'd give was a carrot ice lolly.

    2. They kept running over to the school to help out there. Some schools had less teachers, because they died in bombing accidents.
