Disc 3 “OUR STORIES” This disc, too, is broken into chapters: A Word, Home Front, In Love, Shopping, At Work, At Play, Boom Years, What We Drove, Where Were You?, Our Storytellers, and Meet Roy Reiman.

Disc 2 “OUR PHOTOS” This DVD is broken into ten separate chapters: Front Lines, Home Front, What We Wore, At Work, At Play, In Love, Driving, Shopping, At Home, and At Ease. From the conflicts endured in WW II to the carefree days back home, we get a clear picture of what life was like for that generation. Radio was king and they speak fondly of all the popular radio theater shows. They tell short stories about what life was really like in that era.
