Blue, Gray & Khaki: Civil War Veterans Impact WW1

“Blue, Gray and Khaki” presented by Paul Hadley. From recruiting and financial and emotional support on the home front — to actual wartime service — how did this earlier generation of veterans help the cause of America’s doughboys? This program will feature photos of Civil War veterans and families who supported our “Doughboys” in World War. Did you know that several Union and Confederate vets were still in the U.S. Army in 1917? Learn more about relationships between the soldiers who went “over there” and their parents and grandparents still in the States.
