Everywhere, for example IBM and most other typewriter manufacturers converted most of their typewriter factories to making M-1 Garaund rifles and other guns. Auto and tractor manufactures converted much of their factories to making tanks and parts for fighters and bombers. Lucky Strike cigarettes quit using green ink on their package labels because the pigment was based on copper and switched to red ink, they made that a big patriotic selling point of the war "Lucky Strike green has gone to war... buy Lucky Strike red".
