Jack
Pulwers authors "The Press of Battle: The GI Reporter and
the American People"
Mr..
Jack E. Pulwers, a former AFRTS broadcaster, has written a
book entitled "The Press of Battle: The GI Reporter
and the American People."
"Jack Pulwers has written a powerful and much-needed book on
the oftentimes heroic exploits of the GI reporter. I
encourage anyone who is interested in the history of battle,
and especially World War II, to read this inspiring book.
For in its pages, they will discover that the GI reporter
was much more than a grunt transmitting the words of battle,
but a true representation of the best of the American
spirit. Many of these reporters never left the battlefield,
and "The Press of Battle" rightfully honors their sacrifice
and contributions.
-- Bob Dole, former Senate Majority
Leader and WWII veteran"
.....
"Jack Pulwers tells the story of those who provided the eyes
and ears for the troops, their families and the rest of the
country during World War II. Inspired by his experiences,
"The Press of Battle: The GI Reporter and the American
People" is Pulwers' remarkable in-depth exploration of the
press and the media during this pivotal time in American
history. A culmination of thirty years of research, "The
Press of Battle" includes over 300 photos and 375 interviews
with those who lived, wrote and photographed the news. The
result is a singular and groundbreaking work that enlightens
readers on both the civilian presses that were designed to
bring news to soldiers and their families worldwide, and the
presses that were operated by and for the soldiers."

DINFOS BJC and SITE 1991 alumnus David H. Lippman was

written speeches, press releases, proclamations, and
statements for the mayor for the past five years.
As a member of the US Navy, Lippman attended DINFOS in
Indianapolis in the summer of 1991.
"We were among the last classes to use typewriters and do
classes on public speaking," Lippman recalls. "My
laptop computer was kind of a curiosity. When I read
about the technology being taught today, I feel kind of
ancient." (posted 03/18/2004) |
