![]() I think it didn't happen, back in the day, because WW II was the first and last war, that everyone in the country felt they were part of the war effort. Rationing, scrap drives, Rosie the Riveter and so many men in uniform. The country felt it was fighting for it's life. So who do you honor when everyone was part of the victory. Hell, move to Levittown and make babies. ![]()
