Mike CT posted:Truman was FDR's (Franklin Delano Roosevelt's) vice president when he died, third term as president. Truman served-out the remainder of FDR's term, and another. Moving on after WW2, the start of a lot, most noted the Interstate Highway System. Next up, Eisenhower, then Kennedy. Passenger Railroad days, were gone forever.
It was his 4th term, not 3rd. Elections in 1932, 1936, 1940, and 1944, final inauguration in January, 1945.
