America's most celebrated war correspondent, Ernie Pyle lived and worked among the World War II troops he vividly chronicled, offering an insider's perspective of the harsh reality experienced by the soldiers. His front-line coverage focused on what those on the homefront wanted to hear: news of their boys in uniform. Former President Gerald Ford, Walter Cronkite, Andy Rooney, James Whitmore, William Windom, Charles Kuralt, Harry Carey, and others remember Pyle's extraordinary career as an eyewitness to war and his role in shaping the perception of WWII by the American people.
