This documentary, narrated by Johnny Carson, is one of the best documentaries, that were made in the 1970's, that depicted what America's home front went through during WWII. The other noted documentary was BROTHER, CAN YOU SPARE A DIME? which depicted the Depression years just before the Second World War. Both films gave you the essence of being there and yet cannot be seen or purchased.
Johnny Carson's narration in LIFE GOES TO WAR was right on key.
