I remember that people didn’t like oleo because it was too white so they put a little yellow button of coloring in it so you could stir it and make it more yellow. I thought that was funny even back then. We had black shades on all the windows. I lived in the country so any light stood out - people didn’t even use flashlights. I also remember movie stars traveling around the country on trains to sell war bonds - one came through my town.</p> Oh, Yes.

My mother worked for the Red Cross and used to write letters back home for wounded GIs. My dad was civil service auditor and traveled to bases in La, Tex, New Mexico. He had a poster in his office that said “Loose lips sink ships”. Our school had bandage wrapping classes.</p> Do you remember oleo, victory gardens, black outs, meat rationing, scrap metal drives…and on and on?

I can claim but sixty-one times around the sun, and would truly appreciate your thoughts and insights.

Perspective, like ‘location’ is everything when it comes to understanding.

Wow! I salute you and your youthful, hopeful, and considered sensibilites.

I remember so much of it - Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt speaking to the nation, etc. I remember gas and sugar rationing, women had no hose, you couldn’t get tires.
