Thanks for the Memories

Thanks For The Memories Destroys The Historical Myth That Young Men And Women Went About The Business Of War And Stayed On The Straight And Narrow Path. Rather, World War Ii Provided New Opportunities For Sexual Experimentation, For Hasty Marriages, For Flourishing Prostitution--And For Love Connections That Have Stood The Test Of Time.. Young Men In The Military, Far Away From Family And Home, Did Things They Might Never Have Done. Young Women, Many Of Whom Went To Work For The First Time, Experienced A Freedom And Independence Most Women Had Never Known.. Because Of The War, Courtships Were Cut Short, Couples Married More Quickly Than Normal, And Husbands And Wives Were Often Separated For Several Years. Despite Attempts To Get Back To Normal After The War And The Apparent Togetherness Of The 1950S, World War Ii Had Set Change In Motion, Heralding The Second Wave Of The Women'S Liberation Movement..
