Archivist at Caen memorial museum, Mathilde Rouquet received us on October 7th. She presented archives of the museum. Three editions of the American photo magazine, Life, attracted our attention. After Pearl Harbor’ attack, the magazine’ headline evolve. The housewife’ figure gives way to the image of nurse and soldier. The goal is to give other perspectives of the domestic roles assigned to women, and let them be part of the war.
