During #WWI #Japanese #American #women in the #Pueblo area supported the U.S. war effort with tasks, such as sewing uniforms for soldiers, at the Pueblo Steelworks YMCA. Today, #Asian Americans working at the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (#PCAPP) make an #international impact by destroying the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile. . 📷: Steelworks Center of the West . #APAHeritageMonth #APAHM #Pueblo #PuebloSteel #PuebloPride #ColoradoHistory #History #Heritage #Colorado #PuebloCO #WorldWarI
