I think i remember that people were ask to paint the top half of there head light's black where enemy aircraft could not see them incase of an air-raid, anyone else remember that?
I also remember all of us kid's on the week-end would go out and collect anything metal and load it on a large truck that would come by for pick-up on week end's.
and saving our old empty tooth brush tube's which i think had some lead in them, and putting them in a collection box at the lcl. drug store, all for the war effort.
I guess when people get togeather a world war is over in about four years
