Summary:
The first film is intended to be a sing-along for the movie audience before the main feature. The second film is a patriotic newsreel clip. The third film is apparently a classroom educational film for elementary through high school. All three films are meant to be patriotic morale-builders during the 'preparedness' era and the first years of American participation in WWII.
