About the event

Public Presentation - Langlade County in World War I

Frank Bernhagen (Northwestern College- Iowa) will present about Langlade County's mobilization during the First World War. It will be approximately 30 minutes, followed by time for questions and discussion. The project emphasizes social historical themes such as Selective Service, views of immigrant ethnicities, social policing of patriotism, and the role of voluntary associations. The Antigo Daily Journal microfilm archives provide the key source, supported by photographs and primary sources from the Langlade County Historical Society.
