Barberton, much like the rest of the United States, was still in the grips of the Great Depression as the 1940s approached. As Europe became entrenched in another war, allies began to ask the US to supply war materials to help and the US military started increasing orders for military hardware and armaments for itself in the event of an attack on the United States. Quickly, Barberton’s factories were open and Barbertonians were working again. Come learn about living in Barberton during World War II on December 16.
