Historic Strolls presents Gussie the Gov't Gal's Guide to D.C.. It's December, 1941, and Washington, D.C. is in for a big change. Rationing, scrap collecting, bond drives, and anti-aircraft guns on the roofs. Five thousand new government workers arriving per month ... and where will they all live? Socialites, soldiers, spies and "dollar a year" men are just a few of the people you'll meet on this unusual tour. Join new "Government Gal" Gussie as she adjusts to life in a bustling Wartime city. Learn how to survive on ration coupons, and how to "use it up, wear it out". Bring a foil gum wrapper for the aluminum ball or a piece of string for Gussie's string ball! "Relive" these historic years and see how they changed this city forever.
