You receive a message that a cousin of yours has been killed in the Battle of the Bulge. You may want to make a memorial for him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It's the beginning of the month and you lose your ration book. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lucky you! You have been recognized as collecting the most scrap metal in this month's scrap drive. You will get to lead an upcoming parade! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The other members of your family are debating whether to vote for F.D.R. for a fourth term. Voice your opinion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You find five dollars. Will you buy a record or will you buy War Bonds? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your next door neighbors are opposed to the war because they are Quakers. Their son fights the draft. Does this change your opinion? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eleanor Roosevelt shakes your hand at a rally you attend! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your younger sibling has developed a bad toothache and you are saving as much money as you can for the war. Do you go to the dentist or pull the tooth yourself? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You plan a party to celebrate the victory in Normandy, France. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You avoid a scam today. Someone offered you shares in a company which would build something called a television after the war is over. Something like that will never catch on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lucky you! You get the autograph of Jesse Owens, the great Olympic track star. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your next door neighbor is pregnant. Her husband has been away to war for over two years.

Do you reply to the message or ignore it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ever since the war, extricating people out of Nazi Germany has been more difficult than ever. How do you continue to help people under Hitler's oppression? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You find metal in you basement. Do you keep it or give it to the scrap drive? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The U.S. War Department wants you to come work on translating German documents. Do you go or stay and try to get more people out of Germany? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ An older relative hates your music and ends up braking one of your jazz records. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Congratulations! The mayor is giving you and your two best friends an award for collecting the most paper this month. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You have been successful in getting a young couple out of German occupied France.
