U.S. News Review, Issue No. 3 (1942)

★★★★★ · Informative and a morale boaster for the 1943 civilian · ERD. · 2007-08-11

U.S. News Review was well done. It was informative and did a lot to boaster the morale of the 1943 civilian. It shows a lot of of sacrifice that generation gave. This film is now an excellent source for people interested in the history and times of World War II.

★★★ · How much wood would a wood plane plane? · Spuzz · 2005-08-26

Another News parade, with heavy emphasis on da war. 1) The Canadian Made Mosquito Bomber is profiled. This thing, believe it or not, was made of wood! Neat! And it flew! There are a number of them still on display at Canadian war museums. Kind of makes me proud :) 2) The capture of Milne Bay by Allied forces is then shown. We see signs of Japanese occupation, as a bulletproof vest, a bicyle, and a gun turret which the narrator assures us will be turned on the Japs soon! 3) The burning problem about trying to replace home appliances and clothes are shown next. Almost impossible to do, as all…
