1940 To 1949

I am the decade of nuclear 
Reaction. 
   I am the Japanese surrender 
Reads the caption. 

   I am the Iron Curtain speech 
By Winston Churchill. 
   I am Congress passes 
The G.I. Bill. 

   I am George Orwell's 1984 
Book. 
   I am the microwave oven, 
A quick cook. 

   I am the Manhattan Project 
Takes shape. 
   I am one of the first ones 
To buy duct tape. 

   I am Hiroshima when we 
Drop the bomb. 
   I am the slinky watch it 
Move along. 

   I am the start of world war 
Two. 
   I am, Pearl Harbor in 
The Red, White, and Blue. 

   I am the Nazi's give up and 
Surrender. 
   I am an American we will 
Defend her.
