Correct: They planted victory gardens for soldiers, and they entertained the troops and their families.

- Victory gardens: civilians grew fruits and vegetables to reduce demand on commercial food supplies so more could go to the military.
- Entertaining troops: volunteers (USO, community groups, etc.) provided shows, dances, hospitality and morale support.

Incorrect: They did not purchase scarce goods (they conserved and followed rationing), and buying canned fruits/vegetables for soldiers overseas was not a widespread home-front practice.
