    Thanks for uploading! I’ve been searching for this song since I saw it when I was about 10 years old. Never thought I’d find what it was

    Of this Our Gsnger, the Allies on Parade is the most beautiful. It showed how much h children could understand this war, wearing costumes of the Allied countries. The children showed what a large group of nations who resolved to stick together to defeat Hitlet and the Japanese Army-Navy leadership, including those having refugee governments and DeGaulle's Free France. Indeed, Froggy did well dressed as UNCLE SAM. This Our Gang-er was filmed shortly after
    Pearl Harbor ; this country became the Arsenal of Democracy. So, the G.I's really cheered this number, as they appreciated the Gang's contribution.

    I'm still searching for Little Rascals from 1941- 1945 with Froggy, Micky and Janet when they were a bit older. Where are they? Why can they not seem to be located?

    The Garbage Years, Froggy-Mickey-Buckwheat-Janet. Weakest cast ever.

      Definitely the garbage years once MGM took over from Hal Roach. They went from everyday street kids to doing follies and big shows every episode, and it was terrible.

    A sequel, Calling All Kids was released a year later. And again, it has the kids impersonating famous adult performers of the day. Also is Beverly Hudson (Mrs. Liberty) trying to sing like Ethel Merman? Kind Of Sounds like it. Also, It's hard to believe that she was only 13 in this! She looked more like 17 or 18.

    I remember this episode airing on channel 11 in Los Angeles back in the early 1960s when I was a kid. It's funny, but with so many old films from the 1940s and earlier, I saw many movies on TV made during World War 2 and I grew to believe we were still at war with the Axis powers. Not only from the 1940s Our Gang films, but also from all the war-era movies that were routinely shown on TV, along with all the vintage cartoons also made during the war. As I got a little older, I gradually understood the Axis countries were not our enemies anymore.

      Did you remember to buy war bonds? That was the point to all that propaganda.

      What I later learned was that in those days, television stations used a lot of old movies for cheap programming. Since few people had color TV in those days, most of us didn't know the difference.

    The OG____MGM years during WWII were marked by these good kids / a credit to childhood and youth sagas ... The best OG years were when the made fun of the grownups and society in general during the depression era . The lavish MGM production values were not as effective as the shoestring flying from the seat of your pants Hal Roach era .
