Rationing restricted the amount of certain food products, gasoline, clothing and other things. Before the war there was no rationing, however, there was a depression. So many people said they ate better during the war since wages were up, jobs plentiful and food more available even with the restrictions. In England this was not the case because they had not recovered from the depression and the Germans repeatedly sunk supply ships. England had to stay on rationing for 10 years after the war.

How did rationing help the US support its military fighting overseas?

Only WWII affected the US. Rationing didn't affect Americans in WWI (was only in the war a year), Korea nor Vietnam. The US could've fought 3 Vietnams at once; before any rationing would've been needed. Although there was a "bomb shortage" during the Vietnam War, so make that only 2 Vietnam Wars at the same time, before rationing would have been authorized to take place.
