I have a lot of war time issued tubes, VT's. I look at some of the old timers left from WW2 and they remind me of my Dad. Did what they had to do. My father told me that not only did most people celebrate the war ending but that a lot sort of viewed the Depression and the War as one big trial, they finally felt like things were looking up. We would not have what we do if they had failed.
