First sentence: Everybody in those days was singing "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition" and "Mairzy Doats" to keep their spirits up because the war was still going on and our soldiers were fighting all over Europe and in places like Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, and here at home you needed ration stamps to buy meat and even shoes, and little children saved up money to buy U.S. War Bonds.
