We had the best vacation ever in the history of the world! We went to a beautiful beach. The sand was white as snow. We lay in the shade of the whispering palm trees all afternoon, watching the butterflies and birds. In the evening, the ocean was glass. We could look right down into the water and see coral castles and bright fish. When I told my friends about it, they were all green with envy. They all said they wished they could have gone!

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
