Interesting stuff, I had never heard of this before.

Embarrassed to say it's new to me. Of course one reason it's not well known is it happens post WWII and every American history class I've ever taken ran out of time around WWI. lol.

Thanks for sharing that, Dan. Nice production on the video, some recognizable actors in it.

Yeah, well, thanks to the Progressives American history, as it should be taught, just isn't anymore. However, I have heard that they teach some really watered-down American history now that doesn't even resemble actual American history at all. And for some reason world history is much more important than our nation's history.
