I tried doing a search to see if this article had been posted - it seems not - so, hopefully someone will find Bannon’s comments interesting. In particular, I think his remark about how fast our industrial capacity came into play is relevant to our situation today...

Just eulogized a man who was on the Enterprise during the war. Those were some heroic men.

Pray America woke

Bannon described victory in World War II after four-and-a-half years as “relatively quick, when you look at where we started from.”

Actually, it was only THREE-AND-A-HALF YEARS to win World War II, which was fought on three continents all across the Eastern hemisphere.

We've been in Afghanistan for fifteen years...

I just came back from watching Hacksaw Ridge at a theater.

A bit long, but still probably useful as a reminder of what our parents’ generation had to put up with. That, and the Depression too.

So did the fathers and grandfathers of snowflakes. “The Depression was awful and so was the war,” they said. “Let’s give our children an easier life than we had,” they said, and the rest is What We Have Now.

“Boyle noted the enduring sense of unity Americans felt after Pearl Harbor, prompting Bannon to observe that World War II is sometimes described as “the last good war.””

Not any more. In New America kids are taught that the US was the aggressor, that we were cutting off supply routes, forcing them to attack us. Then after they were all but defeated we committed war crimes by unnecessarily nuking them, twice.
The left HATES America and everything about it, from the arrival of Columbus to the election of Trump.
