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.

Get Patriotic and Start That Victory Garden in Sycamore in 1945


From the April 22, 2020, MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1945, 75 Years Ago.

"If Mr. and Mrs. Sycamore  and all the little Sycamores wish to enjoy the many vegetables this coming year as they have in the past -- there is but one opportunity -- to raise a Victory Garden.

"Ultimatums are being issued daily by the United States Agriculture Department and other agencies in Washington, D.C., that the food situation this coming year will be acute.  More food will be required for the armed forces  as they are making the last dash for Berlin -- and then on to Tokyo."
