The Home Front and Key Turning Points

The Federal Government Takes Control Office of Price Administration: controlled inflation freezing the prices of goods Rationing (setting fixed allotments) of goods War Production Board: ensured military and weapons manufacturers received all the resources they needed War bonds: purchases made by civilians to loan the federal government money (with the expectation of eventually receiving payment with interest)

Women and Minorities Make Gains A shortage of traditional labor created new opportunities in the workforce

The Internment of Japanese Americans Mot Japanese Americans lived on the west coast Fears of espionage and sabotage become paranoia 110,000 Japanese Americans sent to “relocation centers” a.k.a. prison camps Justified on the basis of national security

Operation Torch/North African Theatre (1942-43)

Battle of Stalingrad (winter 1942-43)

Battle of Kursk (summer 1943)

Battle of the Bulge
