ONLINE: David Chrisinger

media release: Join Wisconsin Veterans Museum on Zoom for a virtual discussion with author David Chrisinger. His book explores the story of Ernie Pyle, a 43-year-old journalist from rural Indiana who was ubiquitous in the lives of millions of Americans. What Pyle witnessed on the Normandy coast triggered a sort of journalistic conversion for him. Soon his readers — a broad section of the American public — were digesting columns that brought them more of the war’s pain, costs, and losses at a time when America’s fighting men needed the home front to understand what it truly cost to liberate Europe from fascism.  Free, on Zoom.

Event sponsored by The Wisconsin Veterans Museum Foundation with support for the Foundation from Generac Power Systems.
