Battle of Stalingrad (August 23, 1942)  Hitler sends army in to capture Stalingrad  Luftwaffe will night bomb the city  Russians trap Germans within the city & cut off supplies  In February, German troops surrender to Soviets  Germans were on the defensive & being pushed back (turning point!)

This official Coast Guard photo, taken at Salerno, is the first picture of an LST (Landing Ship, Tanks) in the process of unloading to be released. Like giant monsters, they swing open their great jaws and belch out tanks and motorized equipment after Coast Guard and Navy crews drive them right onto the enemy beach.

The Allied Home Front  WWII became total war  Mobilizing for War  American factories were converted to make war supplies  million Americans, many of them women, became workers in these factories  Shortage of consumer goods  rationing  Propaganda used gain support

War Limits Civil Rights  Prejudice becomes a problem  February 19, 1942— Executive Order 9066  Japanese-Americans sent to internment camps in the middle of the U.S.  Suspected of being spies, but none were convicted  2/3 were Nisei, native-born American citizens  Many volunteered for military service

Kicked out of their homes

Put on trains…

Taken to camps

Held in behind barbed-wire Does this sound familiar?
