Join us for a program presented by John Pearce, author of A Private in the Texas Army. He will discuss his father’s diary, which covers military action by north Texans from Africa to the invasion of France and Germany. Pearce will view the war’s actions from the perspective of the common soldier on the ground. Almost all north Texans had relatives or knew men in the 36th Division, which saw more action than nearly any other Mediterranean area group. Admission to the program is free.
