The article says she always emphasized she is not Rosie the Riveter (that term may have been coined after another woman) she was the "We Can Do it Gal". My sense is everyone contributed something during the war years, even soda gals

My parents worked at the Richmond Ship Yards where there's now a Rosie the Riveter Museum. Lots of RtR stuff too.
