Photos from the early 1950’s, I think. She looks vaguely familiar, but it could be just the generic “platinum blond bombshell” look of the time.

Think Beverly Hillbillies.
Hmmm. I don’t really see it.
Especially in the third picture she looks a bit like Lindsey Lohan.
Britney Spears,especially in the first.
either Norma Jeane Mortenson or Anne Francis ?
Made me think about Jane Mansfield..?
Anne Francis had a rounder face than that, and her eyes were lighter colored.
Norma Jeane (Marilyn Monroe) is a possibility, but assuming the thing behind her is the leading edge of an aircraft wing, she was still a brunette when she was working in the aircraft industry, assembling target drones for International Radioplane: http://www.historiasdecinema.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/radioplane_marilyn_1_500.jpg
When I was looking around for photos of Norma Jeane from her WW II dfays, I ran into this photo of woman war workers apparently assembling belts of 20mm (?) ammunition that are wrapped around drums of some sort; anyone know what the drums are? Some sort of electrical drive motors?:

those “Drums” are Drum magazine for ammo
you can see that on woman in background
she pull ammo out the drum
They look awfully small to hold many rounds, and the end of the drum looks like it has some sort of drive system on it to advance them rather than them being drawn in by the cannon itself as it fires and advances the belt.
That girl sure looks familiar to me also, but I can’t place her either… wait a second… Mamie Van Doren?
She had a bit part in the Howard Hughes movie “Jet Pilot”:

It would make her a lot easier to identify if she had a mole on her face or something else distinctive; but you know, you might be able to identify her by the details of her ear shape, which can vary a great deal between individuals.
Oddball approach, but at least it doesn’t change via her make-up or hair color, and Scott’s third photo does give a very good look at the details of her ear for comparison to possible candidates for her identity.
Note the attached earlobes; back in late 1930’s Germany…that…the shape of your foot, and the size and shape of your nose could get you sent to a concentration camp for extermination – as it was one of the sure signs of Jewish ancestry.
