During World War II, rumors spread across the United States that Jews lacked patriotic fervor, evaded the draft, and shunned wartime service.  In a presentation based on a chapter in her upcoming book, Dr. Diane Vecchio disputes these anti-Semitic charges using her research on upstate South Carolina’s Jewish men in uniform.

The 45-minute presentation will be followed by 15 minutes of moderated Q/A.
