In February 1966, a strike is launched in the corridors of Belgium’s arms factory in Herstal, the Fabrique Nationale. (F.N) The 3.000 mechanised women who work on the shop floor performing the first operations in the manufacture of weapons of war demand the application of Treaty of Rome article 119, calling for equal wages for equal work for both sexes. Through their stoppage, they put nearly all the 7.000 workers farther down the production line out of work. The moovement would last twelve weeks with resounding national and international repercussions. F.N is no longer that flaghip of Liège’s industrial basin it once was. Today, only some thousand workers remain, and almost no « mechanised women ». What has become of them? And do they still remember the strike they « waged like a war »?
