あらすじ・解説
Kevin interviews the guardian of the George C. Marshall library at VMI. The two discuss Marshall’s legacy along with some interesting facts about the man whom Churchill called the “Architect of Allied Victory.”
Marshall’s early years in Uniontown, PA and at VMI in Lexington, VA, are covered along with his Army service before and during World War I in the main lobby. The Organizer of Victory exhibit in the west wing focuses on General Marshall’s leadership, including his many innovations and contributions to winning World War II.
The Soldier of Peace exhibit in the east wing features Marshall’s leadership after World War II. The Nobel Peace Prize he received in 1953 for his contributions to restoring the European economy through the Marshall Plan is on display. It will be another highlight among many during your visit. The lower gallery hosts temporary exhibits from the George C. Marshall Legacy Series.
Address: 404 VMI Parade, Lexington, VA 24450. Number: 540-463-7103.
