The ribbon of the road, March 10, 1943. Mount Kenya-This road and runway traverses the rugged wilderness on the slopes of Kenya's mountains like a slender ribbon. It was built to allow a Royal Air Force plane that was forced to land on the mountain to return to its base. After four weeks of solid work, 150 locals collected rocks and stones to fill the holes, cut heather and bushes, and built the runway. At the same time, the road (left side) from the trapped aircraft to the runway was cut off. Credit: OWI Radiophoto from ACME;

We don’t want this job—will you? , March 12, 1943. Ravenna, Ohio-it's not as dangerous as it seems! The two workers at the 30,000-acre government ordnance factory here are sawing through the core of a one-ton bomb. The core is amatol, a high-explosive agent that can blast the steel of the bomb. The final result is written into the Axis' design for world domination. During the ammunition manufacturing process, the core undergoes this test to determine its robustness.
