Washington state supplied crucial resources during WWII, including millions of tons of food and raw material, thousands of bomber planes, hundreds of ships, and the few pounds of plutonium that ended the war and ushered in the nuclear age. This chronicle of the war years details the states wartime contributions and sacrifices with a month- by-month diary drawing on newspaper reports, military records, and other sources.
