Neutrality Most Americans wanted to stay out of World affairs US fought in WWI for democracy, yet imperialism still existed US had its own problems at home-the Great Depression Congress passes the Neutrality Acts in an effort to keep America out of the War.

Europe begins to fall to Germany… British stand alone… Germany attacks Britain in 1940- Battle of Britain Churchill pleads for help from the U.S.

CASh & Carry 1939: Give supplies to warring countries If you want it you have to come pick it up on your ships Final attempt to stay neutral http://quest.eb.com/images/140_1643734?subjectId=0&collectionId=0&keyword=neutrality&localizeMetaData=false

December 7, 1941-Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor "Yesterday, December 7, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.“-FDR

US enters the War: December 7, 1941-Japan attacks Pearl Harbor, Hawaii December 8, 1941-FDR asked Congress to declare war on Japan December 11, 1941-Italy and Germany declare war on the U.S.

Enlistment and Patriotism The American military was not prepared for an all out war. The U.S. calls on American men to enlist. In fact the Government is overwhelmed by the number that decide to join.

Shift in Production American Industry had to go from peace time production to war time production GM, Ford, and Chrysler went from creating cars to tanks. Boeing from regular airplanes to bombers and fighter planes. Gun makers like Colt, from hunting rifles to machine guns, flamethrowers, war rifles.

War Production In full war mode, the U.S. was producing weapons faster than anybody around thought that it would or could. In one month, the U.S. was able to produce up to 4,000 tanks and 4,500 planes.

CONTRIBUTIONS OF LABOR By 1944, nearly 18 million workers were laboring in war industries (3 x the number in 1941) More than 6 million were women and nearly 2 million were minority.

As in WWI… Rationing Victory gardens War bonds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TUPUbvO0eU (Bugs Bunny war bonds)

Executive Order 9066 February 19th 1942: Executive Order 9066 moved 120,000 Japanese Americans from their homes into internment camps. The US justified their action by claiming there was a danger of Japanese Americans spying for Japan More than 2/3 of those interned were American citizens and 1/2 of them were children.
