In 1917, scores of patriotic young girls counted their lucky stars to have secured jobs working at a large warehouse complex in Orange, New Jersey. The task was tedious and repetitive, but it paid well, and they were pleased to be ‘doing their bit’ for the war effort. But little did they know, for most girls, that this job would also lead to a gruesome untimely demise. In fact, when a New Jersey Doctor performed autopsies on some of the so-called ‘Radium Girls’ in 1928, he concluded that they were “still glowing in their coffins”, and rumour has it they still glow to this day.
