During a total war, governments of warring nations mobilized their entire societies towards the war effort. They implemented measures such as conscription, rationing, and censorship to ensure resources were channeled towards the military and to maintain public support. Governments also utilized propaganda to shape public opinion and boost morale. Additionally, they established war economies, directing industries towards producing weapons and other supplies needed for the war.

They were tough.

U.S. soldiers were given Hershey's chocolate bars in rations. It was considered a great snack for boosting energy.

Actually the exact opposite is the case. Not withstanding Hogan's Heroes where bribes are routinely paid to Shultz in the higly prized "AMERICAN CHOCOLATE", the real bar provided to American troops in WW2 was a special order bar bearing no resemblance to a chocolate bar any of us would buy at a store. It in fact was so bad, so difficult to eat, and so hard on the digestive system, that it was a useless product for the most part.

You must remember that his chocolate bar was an US Military design, not a Hershey design (it was produced by Hershey Chocolate). The US Military wanted an emergency rathion, not a treat for the soldiers and so they put forth a set of requirements for the bar among them being:

1) the bar must be temperature resistant so that it would not melt in the field

2) it must provide approximately 1800 calories

3) it must taste only slightly better than a raw potatoe

Yes, these were the requirements of the bar. The thinking was that if the bar tasted even remotely good, then soldier would eat the bar anytime they wanted a treat, rather than saving it as an emergency ration. Unfortunately, Hershey was too good at its job. The bar was indeed temperature resistant to about 120F., it did provide the requested caloric quantity, and it tasted bad, was hard to eat, and caused indigestion on most occassions.

As a result, the bar was pretty much a failure, for the army, and a great success to Hershey. Hershey received no less than five awards of Excellence from the US Govenment for the bar and its variations over the years. But in the field the bar was rarely eaten and instead was either thrown away, or if possible traded to anyone who did not yet know how bad it was for anything more palatable.

In the defense of Hershey Chocolate, they did indeed to a some excellent work with the bar. They met the requirements the US Military put to them. In the processes they had to invent an entirely new way to make chocolate bars. And they did over the years by request, make several attempts to improve the bar in various ways. They even made it resistant to poison gas at one point through its packaging.

To recap, the LOGAN bar as it was called in WW2 is nothing like a "real" chocolate bar and was not enjoyed by anyone.

The postage rate in April 2009 was at 42 cents. It was raised from 42 cents to 44 cents on May 11th. The second ounce of postage remained at 17 cents.(10/2009)

to build public support and keep up morale for the war effort

Men are not better than women, nor are women better than men. They are different and cannot be accurately compared.

While women are pound-for-pound stronger than men, men are usually bigger, and therefore will be stronger, which of course is a desirable trait in rugby. Having said this, women's rugby is considered by some to be a purer form of the sport, owing to the fact that they tend not to rely on brute force (although there are undoubtedly some female players capable of doing this) and instead rely on skill.

what industry supported the efforts of the office of war information (OWI)

Not nearly as many as Stalin was responsible for, but Stalin was 'our friend and ally' so we don't talk about it. Hitler was a ruthless and feared leader of Germany during WW2 there is no way to put a actual number of men woman and children that were murdered by this man.If someone was to estimate a number of deaths he is responsible for including his own people i would estimate at 15 million or more.....

By car, train, subway, bus, ferries and hydrofoils, etc. Like any other industrialized country.

the scramble for africa was a huge cause of tension between the european powers in 1900 because all of the european countries wanted to expand their empires colonially. they fought over certain lands in africa, especially, that gave them sea access and trade routes. also, each african country had their own natural resources that europeans wanted badly.

In Guyana there are several genres that are popular and these include reggae, dancehall, soca, calypso, chutney: however the one of widest appeal is dancehall.

You get deaf sooner, if too loud.

You can become antisocial, if you weren't already.

You get happier, no matter what the type of song.

You feel like someone understands you.

During the war. For many African Americans, the war offered an opportunity to get out of the cycle of crushing rural poverty. Blacks joined the military in large numbers, escaping a decade of Depression and tenant farming in the South and Midwest. Yet, like the rest of America in the 1940s, the armed forces were segregated.

all sorts of crazy stuff because it depends on the age the teens sort of listen to hip hop and R&B adults sort of listen to rock bachata and hip hop to and electronic

hope the answer was good for you

Wars are economically disruptive, and armies consume a lot of resources, so you get shortages, and then you use rationing to ensure that people are at least getting enough food or other necessities (gasoline typically) to survive, even though they can't get as much as they would normally get.

Sweden remained neutral, it did not participate in the war and was not attacked. Sometimes allied bombers which could not make it back to England would land in Sweden which, as a neutral power, was required under international law to imprison their crews until the end of the war. There is some controversy about Sweden's sales of iron and various goods to Germany - and also to Britain. Sweden allowed the Germans to use their railways which aided in the invasion and occupation of her sister country, Norway, which had also attempted to be neutral. I traveled extensively in Norway during the early 70s, and the WW2 generation never forgot that about Sweden. Put yourself in Hitler's or for that matter any in the German high command's shoes. What does Sweden offer in terms of strategic or tactical warfare? Nothing. In order to fight the British, the only useful country is Norway, which the Germans took. As far as the Soviet front was concerned , Hitler found an already willing ally with Finland. So why disrupt matters by sending German troops into a country which is militarily useless but economicaly important because of their iron production? The best way to handle the measure is by doing business with Sweden, not attacking them.

The french North-West Africa:Mali, Burkina Faso, Ivory Cost,Senegal,etc... was helping France fight against Germany, and the british south Africa was helping great Britain who was helping the United States

The average household size in Canada are 3.0 people. Hope this helped!!

their music has no pitch and it is a kind of depressing sound, their instruments are made of steel which gives it that sound. Their musical instruments started with the gong, the king used a gong to get all of the workers attention.
