Learn more about the United State’s involvement in World War II between December 8, 1941 and March 31, 1942.  This time period began with Day of Infamy, Pearl Harbor and led to the beginning of war rationing, men and women serving their country, blackouts and more.   Explore the experience of the American public in the early days of the war.
