  1. True because of the PA steel mills production and its productivity during the war and the safest place of the three along with 20% of production  I would say true


  2. True

  3. Remembering WWII Through ... During the course of World War II, Pennsylvania supplied 31 percent of America’s steel and 20 percent of worldwide production.

    They produced 1/5th of the steel worldwide, so I would say it was true.

  4. up a river in Maine is the town of Bath, famous for building ships since 1635..and a shipyard called Bath Iron Works. This yard, 200 miles by single track railway from Boston and 500 miles form Pittsburgh, in countryside little changed from when the Indians were welcoming John Cabot in 1500 ,built more destroyers from 1941 to 1945 than the whole Empire of Japan.

    It is absolutely mind numbing what America turned out in 4 years in terms of ships and planes and armaments.....and this with 4 million men under arms and out of the workforce, overseas......

    Adm Yamamoto was right....he had 6 months to beat the United States and then it was just a matter of time
