RAILROAD WORKER, 1943 - A Glimpse into the Life of Mrs. Irene Bracker

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time during the height of World War II. Meet Mrs. Irene Bracker, an unsung hero working as a wiper in the roundhouse of the Chicago and Northwestern railroad in Clinton, Iowa. In this portrait taken by Jack Delano in May 1943, we see Mrs. Bracker donning her work attire with pride and determination. Dressed in denim overalls and a bandana kerchief tied around her head, she exudes strength and resilience that were characteristic of women who stepped up to fill vital roles traditionally held by men during wartime. With goggles resting on her forehead, Mrs. Bracker's eyes reflect both focus and weariness from long hours spent maintaining locomotives essential for transporting troops and supplies across America's vast rail network. The exterior setting provides a glimpse into the industrial world where she labors tirelessly amidst towering machines that symbolize progress and power. The image is imbued with a sense of purpose as it showcases not only Mrs. Bracker but also represents countless other women who played crucial roles within their communities during this transformative era. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the indomitable spirit exhibited by American workers like Mrs. Irene Bracker—a testament to their dedication to duty while contributing significantly to our nation's war effort.
