President Franklin Roosevelt and his war council with Ron Bernard

Join Ron Bernard on March 17th at 7 pm for

Yet, although these men were key players in bringing a victorious end to WW2, they were subordinate to four other men who are lesser known, and perhaps entirely unknown to the most recent generation of Americans. We will introduce the audience to these men, how each of them fit into Roosevelt’s chain of command, and how they got there.
