In the March 2, 1942 edition of LIFE magazine an article was published entitled Now the U.S. Must Fight for It's Life. The article was published three months after Pearl Harbor at a time when Americans feared possible invasion by either or both Axis powers. This article captures the attitude of the time and also post six scenarios on how the Axis would invade the U.S. supposedly. While we now know none of these scenarios were realistic they still portray the American mindset at the time.
Here is the link to that issue of LIFE magazine.

or simply go to LIFE-Google Books and look up the March 2nd 1942 edition of LIFE.
Given all of the discussions on this board on how the Axis might have won World War II, I thought it would be instructive to show one man's vision of what-might have-been. Any comments or discussion will be appreciated.
