Shift Change

This old picture shows the crowds and traffic snarls associated with a shift change at the Groton Connecticut Electric Boat Works. The picture was taken in 1941. The work and business is in stark contrast to the typical pictures from the Great Depression of just a few years prior. It is interesting how war helped break us out of the Depression.
