The Commando Ajax Ontario February 1, 1943 Volume 1 No. 11 OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE CITIZENS' COMMITTEE OF THE COMMUNITY OF AJAX (Main Article) THIS IS WAR! (Picture Centre) Familiar night scene to Londoners who have witnessed the fury of Nazi bombing forays is this of buildings, hit by incendiary bombs, going up in flames in the vicinity of St. Paul's. The dome of the capital's most famous cathedral is vaguely visible in the background. (All Wide World Photos passed by British Censor). Will a desperate enemy make it happen here ? Can it happen here? Yes, experts say, it can. Faced with the grim certainty of his ultimate defeat as long as the Arsenal of Democracy—Canada and the United States—continues to pour the munitions of war, food and fighting men to the aid of his enemies, Hitler, in desperation, may well command his Luftwaffe to level our cities, wreck our industries, demoralize our citizens. Then it would be our churches and their worshippers, our homes and their families, our schools and their children, our industries and their workers that would know the hate that is the Hun's. Yes, it can happen here. And it will if we pursue the path of complacency, the complacency engendered by the news of victories won. We've just won a few battles so far; we haven't won the war yet. It will take a lot to do that ... in men, munitions and money. We've got the men and we can, and will, make the munitions. The money? We've got that too. And it's badly needed; it, too, is an essential "material" of war. It is needed to fight for our churches, our homes, our schools and our livelihood. Let's lend it to our country for the sake of these things. Buy War Savings Stamps and Certificates regularly.(Column Far Right) (Picture 1) This Was a Church, a place of worship, before the German Luftwaffe reduced it to ruins. It was St. Clement Danes, a famous old London landmark. (Picture 2) This Was an Office in Portsmouth until the Huns got it during an air raid. Workers can be seen searching the debris for what may be left of their equipment. (Picture 3) This Was a home in a London apartment house until a German bomb sheared it in two. Note how part of a wall was blasted right into the rooms. (Picture 4) This Was a School in an unidentified English village before a lone Nazi bomber scored a direct hit, killing 22, injuring 30. Eight boys were never found after the "sneak" raid.
