Event Details

The City of San Diego was profoundly changed by World War II. The population nearly doubled between 1940 and 1943. During that period, 15,000 people were moving into San Diego and entire new neighborhoods, such as Linda Vista, grew up. Balboa Park was rapidly transformed into a navy training base and San Diego became a hub for military activity in the Pacific. This talk includes a slide show with newspaper headlines, photos and news reel footage from the period.
