(Posted on the 75th anniversary of D-Day) Those not serving in the Armed Forces during WWII supported the war on the home front. Most workers bought War Bonds using automatic payroll deductions. They were encouraged to invest at least 10% of their earnings. Factories were given a “Minuteman” flag if 100% of the workers joined the “Ten Percent Club.” Hollywood celebrities also appeared at War Bond drives, urging civilians to do their share.
