Narrated by actor Henry Fonda, this film dramatizes the gradual realization by a town’s citizens that they must contribute to the war effort. Prior to Pearl Harbor, the local National Guard unit is called to active duty in the Pacific, but the citizens do not contribute to the war effort until after several of the hometown men are killed. This short propaganda film was nominated for a 1943 Academy Award, and includes derogatory terms about the Japanese that some viewers may find offensive. close
