3 Georgia and World War II Southern states were critical to the war effort during World War II and none more so than Georgia. Some 320,000 Georgians served in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War II, and countless others found employment working in wartime industries. These experiences changed the state's future. The war will influence change in the state's politics, help to mend race relations, and cause the economy to accelerate towards a more modernized Georgia. World War II will lift Georgia out of the Great Depression.
4 Carl Vinson
5 0 Georgia again became a military leader as Carl Vinson began to help build Naval Bases through out Georgia. 0 He wrote many bills that expanded the US Navy and helped to supply Georgia with additional war making capabilities. 0 This expansion enabled US ships to supply the allies with supplies, troops, and weapons. Carl Vinson
6 He Partnered with Roosevelt to Influence Congress He Fought to improve the military force in congress and worked beside Roosevelt to encourage congress to pass laws helping to improve military actions. Vinson wrote several bills strengthening the navy and applying aircraft in national defense. The first bill that he wrote called for expanding naval aviation to 10,000 planes, training 16,000 pilots, and establishing 20 air bases The second bill was designed to speed up naval construction by easing labor restrictions and allowing women and African Americans to enter the shipbuilding industry.
7 Richard Russell
8 Richard Russell Jr. Under the Leadership of Richard Russell Jr. Georgia became home to one of the largest infantry bases in the United States. Here men would traveled from across the United States to train for combat. These military camps and bases brought much needed jobs and resources to the state. Richard Russell Jr. also travel to Europe and the Pacific region helping to improve military strategy in an effort to end World War II.
9 African Americans
10 African Americans in the War Over 2.5 million African-American men registered for the draft, and black women volunteered in large numbers. While serving in the Army, Army Air Forces, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, they experienced continuing discrimination and segregation. Despite these impediments, many African-American men and women met the challenge and persevered. They served with distinction, made valuable contributions to the war effort, and earned well-deserved praise and commendations for their struggles and sacrifices.

12 The United States goes to Europe First. We Need to Allies 0 America decided first to focus on the threat from Hitler. 0 We needed allies to help the United States battle the strong Japanese threat. Germany has No Choice but to Surrender marked the turning point in the war. American soldiers and military might of the factory workers joined the effort. 0 Italy is quickly defeated. 0 Germany was forced to fight enemies on all sides.
13 The Holocaust Germany began its initial period of removing the Jewish population which today is known as the holocaust. Hitler blamed the Jewish people for allowing Germany to fall into a great depression and began an ethnic cleansing to remove the world of Jewish people.
14 Concentration Camps Jews, mentally handicapped, gypsies, homosexual, and anyone who could not work were rounded up, placed on cattle cars, and shipped to concentration camps to either be forced to work, or be excavated.
