**World War II: The USA in the Fight ** = = = = 
 * Rationed items: **
 * **<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Cooking fat **
 * **<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Gasoline **
 * **<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Typewriters **
 * **<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Cigarettes **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> These and more other items were rationed to provide soldiers with food and meterials to help them out during the war. In my opinion, rationing was very necessary because World War II was a huge war and our soldiers were going to need an infinte amount of foods, clothings, etc. to help them fight against the Germans and Japanese. **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> The purpose of the Office of War Information was to produce propoganda to support the war effort. Propaganda is biased information used to publifor us becize a political cause or point of view. The OWI produced posters, films and cartoons supporting U.S. soldiers. **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">I believe the propaganda that the OWI made was good for the war because it helped people become more patriotic and hactive in America. **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> The internment camps were used to keep Japanese-American civilians living there until WWII finished. They were kept in camps because Americans were suspiscious of them. Japanese-Americans were surrounded by barbed wire and armed soldiers. This was part of Franklin Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066. **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> The Executive Order 9066 was both a good and bad thing. It was a good thing because we weren't attacked again, but it was also a bad thing because we downgraded the Japanese. **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> There were many reasons for the creation of the atomic bomb, such as the U.S. wanting to end the war faster and word getting out the the Germans were also trying to create an atomic bomb. The creation of the atomic bomb was known as "The Manhattan Project." **
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> The atomic bomb was a bad creation because we destroyed 105,000 Japanese civilians, but it was beneficial for us because the Japanese had surrendered. **
