      The quotation "sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind" is biblical in its origin (Hosea 8:7) not, as stated in the opening narration, by Winston Churchill.
    • Quotes

      Narrator: [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] There was hope in the air that second autumn after Pearl Harbor. The Allied forces were finally on the offensive, and in Winston Churchill's words, those who had sowed the wind were now reaping the whirlwind. But in our home, as in millions throughout the nation, there was also anxiety for loved ones away in military service. Some of them would never return, and there were others whose fate was at that time unknown... the missing in action.
