A poster comes to life. Like liquid fire, molten steel is poured from an electric furnace into a ladle. When drawn, forged, treated and cast, this red river will be a tank, a ship's hull, or a hundred guns for men like Sergeant Vineyard and Chief Evans to use against the enemy. George Woolslayer, welder at Allegheny-Ludlum, explains this process in steel-making to the servicemen during their visit to the mill

A poster comes to life. "Never got so close to one of these babies before" says George Woolslayer (right) giving an army jeep the once-over. At the post where Sergeant French L.

Aviation-radio Chief John Marshall Evans (left) got a few pointers himself during this tour of the camp which was arranged after the servicemen had visited Woolslayer's steel mill.

A poster comes to life. The middle man in the poster looks at his image mounted on a wall at Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Corporation, wonders what the other two fellows are like, and where they are these days. George Woolslayer, thirty-two-year-old welder, was chosen as a model for this poster when an Office of War Information photographer visited the plant in the fall of 1941. His interest in the soldier and sailor prompted him to write OWI (Office of War Information) asking for information on the servicemen. Result: furloughs wer obtained for the two, who came to the steel mill and saw that "Men Working Together" is the formula by which American soldiers, sailors and workers will win this war.
