When the war was over, they had savings which they used to buy automobiles and other goods that were not available during the war. * * Informational Text WWII had a significant impact on South Carolina just as it did on the rest of the country. Immediately after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the US was anxious to retaliate against the Japanese, whose sneak attack had brought the US out of isolationism and into the war in Europe as well as the Pacific. A group of bomber pilots under the leadership of James Doolittle trained in Columbia to engage in an air attack to be launched from aircraft carriers on Tokyo. The attack helped to lift the morale of Americans. Causes Ramification/Effect Training of Doolittle Air Raiders * Informational Text (Third Paragraph) African American pilots were trained at the air base at the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. Commanded be white officers, the Tuskegee airmen supported the allied invasion of Italy. Then they were assigned to escort heavy bombers on raids against strategic enemy targets. This air campaign was directed at weakening Germany prior to the D-Day invasion. Several of the Tuskegee airmen earned the Distinguished Flying Cross and the airmen proved that AA pilots could shoot down enemy aircraft as well as or better than white air crews. AA soldiers served in segregated units commanded by white officers in the fight for freedom. The Tuskegee Airmen and the bravery and sacrifice of other AA members of the military opened the doorway for other AA to serve in the military and for the desegregation of the military in the postwar period. Cause Training of Tuskegee Airmen Ramification/Effect * Where did the Doolittle Raiders do some of their training for their bombing of tokyo? * Columbia * Where was the Airfield/Institute Located, that the Tuskegee Airmen trained? * Tuskegee Alabama * Cause Additional Air Bases Return of Economic Prosperity Rationing and Bond Drives * Ramification/Effect * * SC Standards * Text book * Informational Text * Document Camera/Promethean Board * PowerPoint * Teacher Created Notes * Teacher Created Graphic Organizers * Video/Mill Life * Primary Source Documents * Study Guides/Test *
