What did the Statue of Liberty represent in World War 2?

Liberty Enlightening the World, was best known for supporting the purchasing of war bonds by the American public during not only World War Two but also the one preceding it. There are posters of Lady Liberty leading the way for a mass of Americans to buy war bonds. Of course, the Statue still stood for the liberty and freedom of men - especially after the discovery of Nazi extermination camps in 1942, although there is no literal relation I would imagine many immigrants who had seen the Statue of Liberty after experiencing the extermination camps would have appreciated it more than most would have then and today.
