North Platte Canteen Honor Roll. As the demands of the war grew so did the sacrifices of the American people.Volunteers donated their extra stamps to the canteen so that the items needed could be purchased. Children gave up their birthday cakes so that the sugar could be used to make cakes for the soldiers. Gas rations were pooled so that groups of women could make it in from distant towns or farms. The extra farm produce was saved for the canteen by farm families instead of selling it.
