Schools at War
Program poster
- ... that the American Schools at War program (promotional poster pictured) raised over $2 billion (over $28 trillion today) to help pay for World War II? Source: Ref #1 in the article says $2 billion - that was stated in 1945/46. The inflation calculation is simple manipulation of that number that is allowed (done by a supported template) and can easily be verified here.

New enough to mainspace and plenty long enough. Fact is fine — $2bn is in source, and the inflation calculator checks out. No textual issues. Image is PD (US government) and eligible for mainpage appearance. This is a great add—surprised no article existed before! Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:07, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
