15 Minutes: World War II

15 Minutes: World War II

Americans of all ages are fascinated with World War II. Books, movies and talk shows still discuss a war that ended more than 59 years ago. Tom Brokaw has called the people of that era “the Greatest Generation.” This year we commemorate the 60th anniversary of D-Day, the liberation of Paris and the Battle of the Bulge. Robert Maddox, Ph.D. is professor emeritus of History and author of Weapons and Victory published by University of Missouri Press.
