A recent Census Bureau analysis found that the majority of women who forgo work to stay home with their children in the United States do so because they lack the education or skills necessary to secure a job. Demographically, America’s stay-at-home moms are likely to be young, Hispanic and living in poverty. Mormon women, though buck the trend. Church doctrine places a heavy emphasis on the family, so while Mormon women tend to be highly educated, they also choose to stay at home with their children at high rates.

Based on reports of the German invasion of France in 1940, the US Army realized its tank force was obsolete. The then-current M2 light tank design was upgraded to M3 standard, which added more armor and improved the suspension for a smoother ride. It retained the older 37mm gun, though the Army was aware the 37mm was inadequate for tank combat; the M3 would be used to supplement the more heavily-armed M4 Sherman then entering production. Moreover, US Army doctrine held that tanks were not supposed to engage other tanks, but rather exploit breakthroughs and tear up enemy rear areas. For this, the high speed of the M3 would be ideal. As another function of tanks, according to the Army, was infantry support, the Stuart was well-equipped with no less than five .30 caliber machine guns.
Production began in late 1941, shortly before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The British Army would be the first to use the M3 in combat, which they dubbed "Stuart," for the Confederate cavalry general J.E.B. Stuart (the name that stuck), or "Honey" for its reliability. Though the British found the 37mm to be nearly useless, too short-ranged, and the crew compartment to be very cramped, they liked the Stuart's reliability--it almost never broke down, even in the extreme conditions of the North African desert--and its speed. If Stuarts could not take on German tanks, they could certainly do a great deal of damage to soft-skinned vehicles and infantry.
The US would soon be using the Stuart in combat as well: the first tank-to-tank combat in American history would come between M3s of the US Army in the Philippines and Japanese Type 97s. The Stuarts came off second-best, but generally speaking the two tanks were comparable. American crews fighting in North Africa in 1942 recognized the same problems as the British, but also found the same values. Occasionally, even the Stuart could score notable successes: Lieutenant Colonel John Waters' task force of over a hundred Stuarts engaged a small force of German Tiger Is and succeeded in knocking them out with close range fire to the engine.
Though the US Army did recognize the Stuart's armament to be completely obsolete by 1943, it was still the best tank in the inventory. A few improvements in armor and crew comfort were made in the M5 design, and though supplemented by the M24 Chaffee in 1944, Stuarts would form the bulk of Army light units until the end of the war. Others would fight in postwar campaigns in China, Pakistan and Angola, and were in Paraguayan service as late as 2002.
Dad built a M3 to complete his collection of American World War II tanks in 1/35 scale. This is an early M3, as it retains the outboard hull machine guns, which were later deleted in the M3A1. The yellow star and US flag were carried during Operation Torch in 1942 for recognition purposes, and many Stuarts still carried them in Tunisia.

An extremely rare survivor in 1972 - Kerr Stuart 10" 0-4-0WT No.3063 of 1918 lying withdrawn in the Chepstow yard of Fairfield Mabey, 05/72. It was a far older design than 1918, being built to an Edward Borrows of St Helens design of 1890, in turn a development of an 1860's design of Cross of St.Helens. The last such loco was built as late as 1929 as they were very rugged and reliable. Unusually, the Stephenson link motion is outside the frames but inside the wheels. Scanned slide.
John Stuart, born John Alfred Louden Croall (18 July 1898 – 17 October 1979), was a Scottish actor, and a very popular leading man in British silent films in the 1920s. He appeared in two films directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
