"Dauntless: Paul Hilliard in WWII and a Transformed America" offers an intimate look into the life of World War II veteran Paul Hilliard. In this session, Rob Citino, PhD, the author of Hilliard's biography, engages in a captivating interview, exploring Hilliard's journey from a farm kid in rural Wisconsin to a Marine Aviator in the war, and his subsequent post-war career. The discussion not only highlights Hilliard's personal experiences during the war but also reflects on broader historical events and the transformation of America.
