General Discussion

at the time, and told us firsthand what it was like in the States on this day and the days that followed. They said it was a very scary time. First, the Great Depression, and then a World War. Rationing, air raid drills, blackout shades, and overnight it seemed like everyone was in uniform. Their news came via radio, movie newsreels, and newspapers. I would like to see both of them again, but at the same time I am so glad they are not alive to witness this current state of affairs.
