Production. Parachute making. With two aunts and an uncle in occupied France, Mrs. Delia Raymond makes careful inspection of flare parachutes which she hopes will help free her relatives. Of her work she says, "I like it. It's something so vital--it means so much and is so interesting. The country needs these parachutes, and I'm proud to be able to help make them. We keep hoping all the world will be free someday." Pioneer Parachute Company, Manchester, Connecticut
