Danville's WWI Home Front and Armistice Celebrations
The Danville region powered through World War I with 6000 local workers at Dan River Mills, vast wartime production, and major bond drives. April 1 introduced Daylight Saving, Liberty Loans surged, and Work-or-Fight laws tightened labor. Units sailed to France in June, influenza hit late in 1918, spurring health measures and cancelations. Victory Day brought massive celebrations, then flu hospital reopenings and a subdued Christmas as the war ended.
