Carl Vinson and Richard Russell brought opportunities to Georgia during World War II.

Carl Vinson was a congressman who took part in the building of the Navy and subsequently helped create a lot of jobs for people from Georgia, due to the fact that shipyards were located in Savannah and Brunswick, in Georgia.

Richard Russell was a senator who brought many military bases to Georgia, therefore helping the U.S. military. He then emerged as a military expert.
