War Bonds

War bonds were savings bond sold to individuals by the government during World War II. These types of bonds were known as Series E bonds (later replaced by Series EE bonds in 1980) and were first made available for purchase on May 14, 1941. The main function of these bonds was to give funding to the government, however they also served other purposes.
