Uncle Sam’s Soldiers Conserve Gasoline
McClellan Field, Calif.—America’s fighting men at the Sacramento Air Depot are “all out” in their effort to help Uncle Sam conserve rubber, gasoline and oil. Every available bicycle in this region was bought up by the military personnel and by thousands of civilian war workers immediately after Pearl Harbor. Here, bikes are shown parked in their racks, purposely placed near planes being serviced, by the crews that own them.
