Title A name given to the resource Road to Berlin Description An account of the resource <p><span>This film focuses on the many aspects of the wartime production and supply dissemination "chain", from creating goods to navigating the dangerous delivery of shipments. "A Nazi submarine 'wolf pack' racing to intercept a convoy carrying urgently needed supplies - and the race against time by those who handle these supplies and load the convoy - furnish the dramatic elements in this film. The picture brings out the importance of the many jobs, both big and small, performed by men and women who are vital links in the life line to the front and whose war work has received little publicity or praise."

Bataan, Philippines Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource A Letter from Bataan Description An account of the resource A short Paramount Pictures film made in collaboration with the U.S. Office of War Information. Two American soldiers are in the jungles of Bataan when a bomb drops, killing one of the soldiers, and wounding the other. Johnny eventually dies of his wounds, but not before composing the eponymous letter, begging those back home to ration and conserve, as he and his comrade died in the jungle without the materials and food they needed. The film ends with an extended plea for rationing and salvage in order to aid the war effort and protect American soldiers. The narrator explains that rubber, steel, shellac from records, packaged foods, and kitchen fat for explosives, are some of the resources that can be utilized by the military. "In the jungles of Bataan two American soldiers, victims of night blindness, are hit by a Jap bomb. Pete is killed outright; as Johnny dies on the operation table, his last words are, 'I've got to write a letter.' Johnny's 'letter' is a plea to the folks at home to see to it that other American soldiers have the things he and Pete lacked on Bataan."

Title A name given to the resource They Deliver the Goods Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource U.S. Signal Corps Description An account of the resource This film depicts the details of the workflow in supply chain that routes wartime provisions and weaponry to soldiers in the South Pacific, and encourages civilians to do their part in facilitating production. "How our fighting equipment gets through to our fighting men in quantity and on time. The mountains of supplies for combat loaded at ports of embarkation are unloaded under combat conditions and under fire in the South Pacific. From behind-the-lines General Supply Depots they are moved through jungle swamps to advance bases, to the firing lines. The never-ending battle of supply is graphically told in these pictures."
