Historical events and people critical to America's development in early May from the 1800s to 1900s are highlighted in this episode. Many advancements were made as the U.S. air mail service began May 15th 1918, the empire state building was formally opened May 1st 1931, and the women's army corps was established May 14th 1942. But there were also setbacks as criminal ring leaders sparked a riot in Alcatraz, and America was active overseas in the Battle of Coral Sea during World War II. Near the end of the war, Germany surrendered to the allies May 7th 1945. May is also the birth month of Irving Berlin, America's greatest songwriter. He's written classics like God Bless America, What'll I do, Blue Skies, the Easter Parade, and many more.
