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.

Early Prep for Victory Gardens in Sycamore in 1944
From the March 13, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."

"In carrying out the Victory Garden program that has been publicized much of late, many stores in Sycamore have put out seed cases for spring, and already some people have made purchase of vegetable seeds for the '44 Victory garden."
