Curiosidades
John Jones is working at the Lockheed plant in Burbank, California, where they are producing P-38 Lightning fighter planes. The P-38 was the only military aircraft in production in the U.S. from the beginning to the end of WWII. Over 10,000 were made.

Citações
Narrator: Yes - I wonder, John Jones, if you realize how lucky you are, you in the United States of America. Do you, for instance, realize that if the conquered people of this world were to accept their conquest, were to collaborate with their cruel conquerors, that your side couldn't win this terrible war? Did I say *your* side? Excuse me, John Jones - I meant *our* side.

Glad to be an American

Though the film is dated because of it's obvious World War II origin, You John Jones still has a somewhat relevant message for today. I qualify that with a somewhat because surely 9/11 shattered quite a few illusions about that.

Still we are a wealthy and prosperous country and still relatively safe as opposed to a lot of areas on this globe. May it ever be so as James Cagney realized while doing his thankless job as an air raid warden in World War II America.

Of course these war time shorts brought together folks from different studios for the war effort. Cagney got to work with Ann Sothern and Margaret O'Brien and never did so again.

Wouldn't it be interesting today though if this short film was updated and say Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and their little bambino did something similar? As an example of course.
