dc.description.abstract | It is said that during World War I (28 July 1914 – 11 November 1918), President Roosevelt was deeply concerned about the safety of the Americans. He instructed the Government to establish a Council of National Defence to help co-ordinate resources for national defence and stimulate public morale. State and local communities set up their own defence councils even though the volunteer groups did not get involved in actual civilian defence. In those years the aviation industry was still in its infancy and military attacks from other countries could not reach America. However, in the 1940s, with the outbreak of World War II, the situation was different. | en_GB |
