Some women were in WAR ACTIVE jobs which included on site nurses, telephone workers which were known as "Hello Girls", entertainment dancers and singers to help the men get through the war, and many served overseas away from family and friends to serve the war and their country. Also, even though the army did not, the navy allowed women to enlist and in WWI 12,000 women enlisted into the navy to help the US at sea.

Many women went UNDERCOVER in the ARMY to serve their country. Some guess that it was upwards of a couple thousand women that joined the army undercover however no one knows the exact amount of women enlisted because their real names were not given when signing up or when the death toll came out their real names were not given. 

The women at home many times made MILITARY NECESSITIES such as uniforms, military machinery, equipment, packaged red cross first aid packages and rolled bandages, made munitions, and much more. Without these simple things the army would not have survived.
