1942 Soundie - Goodbye Mama, I'm Off To Yokohama

This world war 2 ditty was popular at the beginning during 1942 & 43. It starred Marvel Maxwell as The Nurse and Johnny Johnston as the Naval Officer. The Hal Borne Orchestra provided the swinging music.

Support from the civilians of America is what won us this war.

[@sylealek]

Your industry and resources is what won you that war..

[@cumminsscout]

Uhhh... let's not forget the sacrifices of hundreds of thousands soldiers and family's & workers. Maybe you should be a little more grateful Romel…. That you aren't speaking Russian...

[@HooDatDonDar]

Men, industry and resources are useless without fighting spirit. Like having a hilt without a sword, Clausewitz said.

I was surprised and disappointed that the country didn't pull together as one after 9-11.

We were until Bush and Cheney got us into Iraq
We were also fighting insurgents, not a conventional force we didn’t know when the war would end
It should’ve stopped after Bin Laden’s death

US - 1
Japan - 0

How the nazis react to this song?

This about the pacific campaign so it would be unlikely any german would know/care as at this time they were starting to lose territory to the allies
