Just as Detroit symbolizes the U.S. automobile industry, during World War II it also came to stand for all American industry’s conversion from civilian goods to war material. The label “Arsenal of Democracy” was coined by Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt in a fireside chat radio broadcast on December 29, 1940, nearly a year before the United States formally entered the war.
