Synopsis

16-year-old Ruth marries Jim just before he reports for military service. He’s killed in action and she discovers she’s pregnant. Ruth places her baby temporarily in a children’s home, and gets a job in an aircraft factory. Ruth falls in love with her foreman Greg, but keeps her past a secret. Learning she has to claim her child soon or have it put up for adoption, Ruth decides to confide in Greg, but changes her mind when he makes disparaging remarks about a friend who married a divorcee with a child. Ruth writes a letter to Greg and moves away, but he finds her and they reconcile.
