    Perhaps my statement is unclear, just drawing comparison to WWII and demise of industry.
    As a 26 year vet, covering those and other periods, aren't forgotten.

    Print date of the poster, 1942. Not much more than a year into it. The water cooled Browning needed steel, the jack hammer needed steel, the compressor to run it - the tracks and ore carts - the manufacturing plants - transport ships...... and soon enough that steel was going world wide to Allies!

    A little poetic license; "They were BAD, they were Nationwide....."
