World War I was the first war that america used "Women Power". America allowed women to join the branches of the military. The women served as nurses in the army and some women had even won awards from serving. although most women never joined the military. Before the war women where mostly housewives, who stayed home and watched over the house. but when the men left their jobs to fight in the war. the women where put to work in the mens place. Changing how america viewed the women. Before this they viewed them as just stay at home mothers, and now America viewed them as being capable of doing everything that men can do.
