Historian, journalist, and author Garrett Graff Comes to the Gerald R. Ford Library as a part of the Greatest Generation Celebration to discuss two significant oral histories about the major turning points of World War II: the D-Day invasion of Europe as well as the Manhattan Project and the atomic bombings of Japan.
