Chrysler Arsenal Of Democracy


I saw the subject of this post in the actual print version of Hemmings Motor News (yes, people still occasionally read print publications).  It directed me to the Chrysler Arsenal of Democracy video, a documentary about Chrysler's contribution to the war effort during World War II, including its production of the M3 Grant and M4 Sherman tanks.
