Oral History Reflections-

After doing my interview with my grandpa. I now have a great respect for those who were working hard to support the Home Front. When FDR stated that this was a war 'that was not just going to be on the battlefield'. I think the Amercian people really took that to heart and wanted to help out there boys in the Atlantic and Pacific. It really took courage for what these people at home. You could ask anyone who fought or was in charge during WW2, they would agree with me that without the home front, our economy would be as worse as before in the Depression and we may have not been able to have taken down both Nazi Germany and the Japanese Empire. But I also found that we were quite blessed too. Through my research I found the horrors of the Home Front when countries in Europe or the Pacific were in the line of duty. I now have a great amount of respect for those who served and to those at home now. In any war.
