Good post, great article, about a "good" American!

If anyone reads the work of Ernie Pyle ... especially his dispatches from Normandy, 24 hours after D-Day, which were only like three columns out of God knows how many he wrote but IMHO are his masterpieces ... without getting emotionally affected, he doesn't have a pulse. Ernie Pyle was the greatest war correspondent in the history of the planet earth. Period.

Ernie Pyle's houe in Albuquerque (which has been a small community library for some time) is in the process of being restored and fixed up.

I have a book around here somewhere written by Pyle. Easy reading. He had a real understanding of what the military folk go through and what they were trying to accomplish. Why in the world would they give an award in his name to the likes of Rather or Cronkite?
