When America entered WWII, they faced a terrifying crisis: no propeller blades for their aircraft. With aluminum scarce and production capacity nonexistent, defeat seemed inevitable. Then Hamilton Standard did the impossible—they went backward in time. Furniture makers, piano craftsmen, and bowling pin factories began carving sophisticated propeller blades from laminated birch wood. This forgotten innovation saved American aircraft production in 1942-43, equipping over 73,000 planes with wooden blades carved in Midwest workshops. The story of how ancient woodworking techniques combined with cutting-edge engineering to win the most technologically advanced war in history. 545,000 wooden blades. Zero recognition. Total victory.
