Abstract:

As the country enters its second year during World War II, Carraway recounts a number of changes and events that have taken place in the war effort. Among them are military camp and base construction; men who have been cited for gallantry; an increased population--especially at the Wilmington shipyards; and mining for valuable minerals, such as mica, copper, and manganese.
