When President Roosevelt called on every man, woman and child in America to do their part for Allied victory in World War II, the Mid-South answered without hesitation. Children collected scrap metal, purchased war stamps and grew vegetables in victory gardens. Women ran households under the constraints of rationing, took vital jobs in war industries, volunteered in the community and even served in the armed forces. Men fought on the battlefront, protected the home front in the civil defense and worked in essential industries. This WKNO documentary tells the stories of courage, determination and sacrifice demonstrated by members of our community in their own words and through their own eyes.
