My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

War Industries Working Together in DeKalb County in 1944
From the January 9, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1944, 75 Years Ago.
"In order that a better understanding of what the other fellow is doing and the problems that each industry faces could be learned, a tour of a group of manufacturers was conducted in the past few days through the industrial parts of DeKalb, Sycamore and Genoa.
"The tour proved to be very worthwhile as each manufacturer was able to see the products which are being produced in the other plants and also had the opportunity to discuss the various problems encountered by each."
