This March 27, 1943, photo and article in the San Pedro News Pilot describe a big event at a Cabrillo Avenue School in San Pedro. Enough money was raised to warrant jeep rides at the school. I can imagine that must have left some memories with those kids!

Imagine elementary school kids today raising money to buy an M1117. In WW2 the whole country was at war, not just the servicemen.
I wonder if maybe this poster was hung up at the Cabrillo School in ’43?
