to WWII effort certainly, along with Detroit, Kansas City, New Orleans, Los Angeles, SF/Oakland, Seattle, New York... Name your city, they contributed to the WWII effort. Wilmington contributed...just like practically every other American community. Some gave more, some less, some gave all. We ain't that special. Nothing to see here...move along.
If the local citizenry is the genesis of the idea, I could get behind it, maybe. When a politician thinks of the idea, they are angling for votes.
It won't be long until Louise McColl is running the program.
