Nov. 29 – On this day in Montana history in 1939 crowds were
turning up at the U.S.-Canada border to see American-made military planes being
handed over to the Canadian military. It was part of the “Cash and Carry” or
Lend Lease plan pushed through by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to
provide Canada and those fighting Nazis in Europe with material to keep then in
the war.
