I remember my Grandmother telling me how she lost her thumb and four finger tips when she worked in a shop that made brass cartridges. She is long gone but remember her telling the story to us when I was a young child 40 +years ago...
"Interesting statistic: For every American military casualty in World War II there were eight industrial casualties on the home front."
