I'm Catherine L. (Kay) Morrison.
I became a "Rosie" in January of 1943,
when I went to work for Kaiser Shipyards
in Richmond, California.
I worked in Yard Two, and I worked the graveyard shift,
which is 11 at night until 7 in the morning,
and I am 96 years old.
I was born November 22, 1923.
And being a Rosie is the most honorable retired
job I could ever have.
It meant a lot to me to be able to support
my country in its time of need,
and to help win the war.
We were known as "Franklin D. Roosevelt's
secret weapon," and I'm so happy that we were
one of the first of the women that were able
to step up and do a man's job,
and We Can Do It!
