Behind the Gun War Rally Calls for Home Front Backing
A wartime letter urges civilians to “hump your backs” and support the war effort through savings stamps and liberty bonds, welcoming soldiers, sharing resources, ensuring fair wages, aiding families, and boosting morale. It frames behind the gun as total national effort across home and front, with calls to sacrifice sugar, coal, letters, and civic duty.
