Alumnus’ exhibit featured in the Wall Street Journal

The Wall Street Journal featured an exhibit about the end of World War II at the Harry S. Truman Library & Museum in Independence, Missouri, curated by Clay Bauske ’73.

The exhibit, “Till We Meet Again: The Greatest Generation in War and Peace,” contains numerous artifacts that tell the story of the end of WWII, including the safety plug from “Fat Man,” the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, maps that show the Allied invasion plans of Japan, and the order from Emperor Hirohito telling Japanese soldiers to stand down.

Bauske is the curator of the Truman Museum and Library.
