The "We Can Do It" image gets a bit of a revamp, Zombie Style! Rosie the Riveter, as the image came to be called, is a cultural icon representing the women who worked the factories in World War II. The actual term Rosie the Riveter, coined in a 1942 song written by Redd Evans, was never associated with the image until it's resurgence in the 1980's. In actuality, "Rosie" was 17 year old Geraldine Hoff (later Doyle) who was working as a metal-machine stamping operator.
Today, Rosie enjoys keeping the world zombie free and portraying the Awesomeness of women in general.
