The Home Front
The home front covers the activities of the civilians in America while at war. World War II was a total war; homeland production became essential to both the Allied and Axis powers. Life on the home front during World War II was a significant part of the war effort for all participants and had a major impact on the outcome of the war.
Magic Carpet
