Lost two Uncles in the US Navy during Pearl Harbor.

Grandfather and Grandmother lived in San Diego and they told me stories about having to use stamps to buy food. My other needed eggs for her diet and they got extra stamps due to the doctor wrote she needed eggs for he diet. If you wanted Milk or eggs you turned in the stamps for those products and they allowed you to buy them. No stamps you couldn't buy certain products.

They also turned off lights at night in their neighborhood in San Diego.

Grandmother and Aunts who were old enough had to go to work. Grandmother was a riveter in a mfg plant. Aunts, had to work in hospitals as nursing assistants. Grandfather, worked on boilers in the shipyards.
