    ENG 410: WWII Literature

    Jack commented on the post, The Power of Red Lipstick

    I found many advertisements for red lipstick; however I was disappointed when I discovered that these ads were not from Britain, they were from the U.S. I have included one advertisement that I found that was used […]

    Jack commented on the post, Let us "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" to The Beat

    Hi Fahmida, one might assume that during World War II there were mainly slow soothing music to listen to; however, this song proves that this was not always the case. In fact, after listening to this song, I […]

    Jack commented on the post, George Formby, “I Did What I Could With my Gas Mask”

    Sidney, I definitely thought that this was an elderly women singing. It is amazing how George Formby was able to alter his voice to sound like that. After hearing the song and close reading the lyrics, I thought […]

    Jack commented on the post, Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree- The Andrews Sisters

    Hi Tiffany, I agree with you. I like how the song is lively and upbeat and at the same time expresses important points. For example, the lyrics clearly represent the separation between couples and the loyalty that […]

    Jack commented on the post, Vera Lynn's "We'll Meet Again"

    Thank you for pointing that out. I definitely thought it was impressive that Lynn recently released a collection of her songs. In fact, while I was doing research, I had not noticed that Lynn was still alive. […]

    Jack commented on the post, Keep Mum - She's Not so Dumb

    Claudia, I like how you explained the power and danger of something as simple as words. One might not expect that women had a role to play in the war in terms of “spying” or releasing information; however, these […]

    Jack commented on the post, Tell Them To Make It A War Savings Christmas

    I am not sure how many years these posters were in use. Many of the posters simply have the entire duration of the second world war (1939-1945). I have not read anything stating whether or not the same posters […]

    ENG 410: WWII Literature

    Jack commented on the post, Vegetables in Cheese Sauce and Chocolate Oatmeal Pudding

    Isamar, both dishes look like they were made by a professional. The texture of the oatmeal and the vegetable pie looks solid and well prepared. My pie was all over the place. I actually think that the cheese sauce […]

    Jack commented on the post, Vegetable Pie with Cheese and Oatmeal Crust

    Hi Isamar, the dough was not really hard to make because you just mix flour and water. However, the hardest part was being able to get it to be the right texture and actually knowing how much water to put. I added […]

    ENG 410: WWII Literature

    Jack commented on the post, Vegetable Pie with Cheese and Oatmeal Crust

    Thank you, Professor Dinsman. I also think that the vegetables needed some sauce or cream. I do not think the extra cooking time made much of a difference causing it to taste blander than it should. The vegetables […]
