A poster comes to life. A reciprocal engagement is carried out at Sergeant Vineyard's army post, where welder George Woolslayer and Aviation-radio Chief John Marshall Evans (right) learn about life in the Army. Woolslayer was invited to the post after he had shown the servicemen through the steel mill where he works. In this way, the colleagues of the "Men Working Together" poster learned about one another, and gained new respect for the part each plays in the war against the Axis. Allegheny-Ludlum Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

A poster comes to life. With a purposeful stride that augurs well for the future of America, Woolslayer, Vineyard and Evans start their tour of the steel plant. Woolslayer, who played guide and host on the tour, was unable to contain his pride over the event. He would interrupt his exposition frequently with outbursts such as "Gentlemen, I'm honored to be able to show you all this..." Allegheny-Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

A poster comes to life. Welder George Woolslayer meets Sergeant Vineyard's pals at his army post after Vineyard and Aviation-radio Chief John Evans had visited Woolslayer at the steel mill where he is employed.

Allegheny-Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

A poster comes to life. Woolslayer introduces his poster-model companions to a crew of open-hearth furnacemen. "We're the fellows who start making those jeeps you army guys bounce around in," one of the men said. All through the tour of the plant, Woolslayer was the subject of mild jibes. Most common: "When ya' leavin' for Hollywood?" Allegheny-Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

A poster comes to life. Long awaited by Woolslayer, he celebrated the visit of the soldier and sailor with a party at his home. Friends, relatives and fellow workers made up the list of guests. No ordinary party, this one will be remembered by the Woolslayers for years to come. Festivities started at 8 p.m. and lasted well into the next morning. Proudly seated on Sergeant Vineyard's knee is Woolslayer's eight-year-old daughter, Georgia Ann, who stayed up long past her bedtime to take part in the fun.

Wrapping the finished tire. Seeing is not necessarily believing. Even when you see the tire-wrapping machine in operation, it is difficult to understand how it works....spinning a strand of paper around a tire as fast as the operator can feed them in. All the operator need do is place the tire in position; the machine does the rest. Firestone (General) Tires, Akron, Ohio

Touring the plant, Evans got his initiation into a new battlefront where weapons for the Army and Navy are forged.
