Pin-Up Girls in World War 2 Pictures of beautiful movie stars filled the barracks of American soldiers during WWII.  Now pictures like these are simply viewed as porn. But for these men, they meant so much more.
1 in 5 US soldiers had a copy of this picture during World War 2.  But it was more than just a pretty face for the boys to look at.
This face represented...
and her and her her
They were supposed to support their men...
...so they sent their own pictures
and that is what they thought about... ...and it became what the men were fighting for
This...
...became this
Men didnt fight for
They fought for the ones they left behind
and the one they wanted to return to.
