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.

Girdles and Model Planes for the War Effort


From the Dec. 4, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."

1944, 75 Years Ago.

"In giving her girdle to a rubber drive, a DeKalb woman said that it was more important to have her government in good shape."

**************************************

"Don and Ronald Lothson whose hobby is airplanes, have loaned several of their best model  planes, sticks and solids for display purposes in the belief it will aid the sixth war loan drive.

"At the present time the models were on display at the Cilco office on South Third Street where the north window has been given over to exhibit."
