From the March 1, 2017, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
"Another 'Victory' store window display is receiving attention these days in Sycamore. The Ben Franklin store has an eyeball of red, white and blue for all passersby. The entire window is ablaze with the national colors.
"Flags and a display of candy comprise the exhibit. It is impressive with patriotism rather than commercial appeal. It is part of the Sycamore retail effort in selling war bonds and stamps."
Getting Our Patriotism On. --GreGen
The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
