What was the Land Army

Sagot :

Answer:

The Women's Land Army was a British civilian organization created during World War II so women could work in agriculture, reviving a disbanded World War One organization and replacing men called up to the military. Women who worked for the WLA were commonly known as Land Girls. In effect the Land Army operated to place women with farms that needed workers, the farmers being their employers. They picked crops and did all the jobs that the men would do. Notable members include Joan Quennell, later a Member of Parliament.
