From the NC State Archives Blog.
North Carolina sent over 370,000 men and women into service during World War II. North Carolinians comprised the largest number in the Army.
One of them was my Uncle Delbert Hatch, who was in the 101st Airborne and at the Battle of the Bulge when most of his platoon were killed.
On the home front, tens of thousands worked in war industries. Others purchased war bonds and stamps and produced food for the effort.
The Greatest Generation.
