Coffee Talk: Camp Grant during WWI & WWII
Established in 1917, thousands of soldiers during World War I and II were trained at what became Camp Grant in northwest Illinois. Greg Jacobs tells the story of Camp Grant, drawing from the memories and photographs from the World War I troops, Illinois National Guardsmen, World War II draftees, medical personnel, and German POWs that passed through.
