Tell The Folks Back Home The war on truth and propaganda
Senator Mead writes of a 45000 mile tour with Brewster Chandler Lodge and Russell and the front line sketches by Sgt Echohawk reveal soldiers as they really are. The piece urges readers to see the real smell of villages and the fatigue of battle to grasp the true frame of mind of December 7 1941 and to share the war’s burden across the home front. It also notes debates on cost of living findings and the question of who serves beyond ages 30 and how patriotism and willingness are measured.
