We left Richmond, Indiana, this morning and arrived home in Towamensing Township about 7 p.m. On the way across the country we listened to a 36-lecture course on the history of World War II. (We arrived home with three lectures to go.). What is amazing is how this country pulled together to defeat Germany, Italy, and Japan. We put organized an army, navy, and air force and manufactured planes and tanks and ships, and we did it quickly, efficiently, and with little complaint. That is the kind of people we were.
I wonder if anything like that would be possible today. I don’t think so.
