Meet an “Amazing” Who Once Worked On Bombers, Now Makes Masks

Mae Krier, at 94, continues to honor her proud tradition as one of the original “Rosie the Riveters,” who helped win WWII by working on B-17 and B-29 bombers for Boeing. She now makes masks to help us win the war against COVID-19.

Mae has been instrumental in getting the U.S. House of Representatives to agree that “Rosies” should receive the Congressional Gold Medal for their valiant war efforts. She’s now working on getting Senate approval. Meanwhile, Mae is devoting her considerable talents to making masks in the same red polka-dot pattern made famous by artist J. Howard Miller’s WWII poster of “Rosie the Riveter.” To date, she has made and distributed some 200 masks.
