I am very proud of my country and countryman over the years, so God bless them all.

What We Did!  Seems Impossible! 
Carefully study this artwork. Then, read what we did.
Not only is the picture awesome, but so are the statistics! 
 During the 3-1/2 years of World War II that started with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor
in December of 1941 and ended with the surrender of Germany and Japan in 1945,
"We the People of the U.S.A. " produced the following: 
            22 aircraft carriers
              8 battleships
            48 cruisers
          349 destroyers
          420 destroyer escorts
          203 submarines
            34 million tons of merchant ships
   100,000 fighter aircraft
     98,000 bombers
     24,000 transport aircraft
     58,000 training aircraft
     93,000 tanks
   257,000 artillery pieces
   105,000 mortars
3,000,000 machine guns and
2,500,000 military trucks 
We put 16.1 million men in uniform in the various armed services, invaded Africa,
invaded Sicily and Italy, won the battle for the Atlantic, planned and executed D-Day,
marched across the Pacific and Europe, developed the atomic bomb and, ultimately,
conquered Japan and Germany.
 

It's worth noting that during the almost exact amount of time, the Obama Administration
couldn't even build a web site that worked!
