This Business of Fighting: a Human Face on World War II
Presented by Arnie Pitchard
"A few years ago I inherited the World War II army footlocker of my father, Anton (Tony) Pritchard. It contained hundreds of family letters and papers from his service in the Army and in the United Nations postwar refugee program. From these letters I created a story focused on Tony’s time in the front lines in Europe. It portrays a young man dealing with everything from raw fear to his role as a leader to his exposure to a world both wider and more brutal than he had known. The story can have a greater impact with the help of a slide show, made up from photos and other images from my father’s experience."
