Disney was now fully committed to the war effort and contributed by producing propaganda shorts and a feature film entitled "Victory Through Air Power". "Victory Through Air Power" did poorly at the box office and the studio lost around $500,000 as a result. The required propaganda cartoon shorts were less popular than Disney's regular shorts, and by the time the Army ended its stay at Walt Disney Studios with the end of the war in 1945, Disney struggled to restart his studio, and had a low amount of cash on hand.
