New Zealand was heavily involved in World War 2. Half of the nation's income from 1942 and 1944 went toward funding for the war. Conscription was put into effect, and many homes had their lights dimmed, especially along the coast. Most citizens contributed in some form to the war effort, whether through active service, service in the Home Guard, or work in associated industries.
