The war was not
won without the sacrifices of those left at home. Fashions changed
so that clothes took less cloth. Women did not have nylons and used
leg makeup. Gas, oil, tires, shoes, rubber products, meat, and sugar
to name a few were rationed. People raised "Victory Gardens" to conserve
food. All this was done so that the men and women at the front would
have all they needed to win the war. Men laborers were in short supply,
so women went to work in then factories.
