Title A name given to the resource Ready on the Home Front Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Indiana Bell Telephone Company Indiana State Defense Council Wilding Picture Productions Inc. Description An account of the resource "Produced by Bell Telephone in cooperation with the Office of Civilian Defense, this film shows the ways in which citizens can cooperate in defending their homes. Beginning with a map of Indiana and closing with a proclamation by Governor Schricker, the film shows such precautionary devices as black-out curtains, home fire-fighting equipment, location of a bomb shelter within the home, and cooperation with defense authorities." (War Films Bulletin of the Extension Division Indiana University, February, 1943, 4) Presents World War II as another example of when Americans have had to take arms to defend their homes. The civilian air defense is shown as supporting the military's policing of the nation's borders from air invaders. The telephone is shown to be a crucial way of connecting civilian observers to the military command. Presents a fictionalized account of how the military would mobilize and respond to an enemy bombing raid on American soil. Also presents the work of a fictionalized air warden who trains local residents on how to safety proof their homes and how he waits on phone calls alerting him of a bombing attack.

Title A name given to the resource They Also Serve Description An account of the resource This British film from 1940 portrays a housewife on a day like any other. Following a woman going about her business, the film shows a woman who has casually integrated serving the war effort into her everyday routine, from bringing dinner to a neighbor whose soldier husband has returned to growing vegetables to help with the food shortage. The emphasis that little efforts make a difference not only subtly pushes viewers to also make such small contributions, but it also acknowledges and applauds the strength of those left behind. In short, this film takes a break from portraying the bravery of soldiers to showing the bravery of women back on the home front.

Title A name given to the resource Mr. Proudfoot Shows a Light Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Twentieth Century Production Herbert Mason: director Great Britain. Ministry of Information Description An account of the resource Mr. Proudfoot Shows a Light is a short fiction film from the United Kingdom from 1941, commissioned by the Ministry of Information, and directed by Herbert Mason. This short film was intended for English civilians to illustrate the importance of obeying the blackout regulations of the time. During the Blitz, blackouts were vital to ensuring that the bombers weren’t able to use city lights for navigation or targeting purposes. Humorously using the arrogant and bumbling Mr. Proudfoot, this film serves a dual purpose of emphasizing the importance of obeying blackout hours, as well as easing the stress of the time period by encouraging laughter.
