The four true statements regarding the World War II Home Front war effort are:
-
Victory gardens supported the war effort by people growing their own food in their yards/gardens at home.
-
Women took on roles to support the war effort by going to work in factories. These ladies were nicknamed 'Rosie the Riveter.'
-
People were asked to gather items that could be recycled, so they had metal, rubber, and paper drives.
-
Rationing of foods like meat, coffee, butter, and sugar allowed for more to go overseas to the soldiers.
The other statements regarding men taking on roles traditionally worked by migrants and children not being allowed to participate in Home Front activities, as well as the American Red Cross's involvement, are not accurate.
