Still riveting

Connie Palacioz, who worked at the Wichita Boeing B-29 Superfortress plant from 1943 until 1945, becomes emotional at a Wichita, Kansas B-29 rollout ceremony March 23, 2015. Palacioz worked to help restore the aircraft for the last 15 years and installed the original rivets for the pilot section in the 1940s. She began to cry thinking of all the other "Rosie the Riveters" she worked with who could not be there that day, the 90-year-old said. (U.S. Air Force Photo by 1st Lt. Jessica Brown)
