Spent some time visiting @wwiimuseum today. It left an unexpected impact on me. Grateful for the service of those who have gone before, yes. Incredible artifacts, displays and history, yes. But what I really enjoyed was being handed a card that profiled someone where you used their “dogtag” along the way to hear more about them. . It was STORY. And the man who I received to follow was Ernie Pyle. I had no prior knowledge of this man. He was a WWII journalist who told STORIES of the soldiers and war. I felt connected. And walked away knowing more of his STORY. @erniepylelegacy . #wwii #erniepyle #sketch #sketching #sketcbook #wwiimuseum #nola #illustration #story #history #drawing #war #art #artist #illustrator #mikebone #mikebrennanart #dailyart #visualart #watercolor #penandink #artifacts (at The National WWII Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/B04ghpnjeTu/?igshid=vktm2jz2se29

They seemed terribly pathetic to me. They weren't warriors. They were American boys who by mere chance of fate had wound up with guns in their hands, sneaking up a death-laden street in a strange and shattered city in a faraway country in a driving rain. They were afraid, but it was beyond their power to quit. They had no choice. They were good boys. I talked with them all afternoon as we sneaked slowly forward along the mysterious and rubbled street, and I know they were good boys. And even though they weren't warriors born to kill, they won their battles.” A quote from WW2 European Theatre war correspondent Ernie Pyle which I think elicits a great deal of thought - not just on the past, but on our future and our present as humanity.
