Marine Corp. Karl J. Schmidt fought in the Pacific during WWII. He kept excellent records, the best he could, during this time of service, and following his Honorable Discharge when he returned home.
Karl’s family and friends would learn about his experiences piece by piece through the years. Becky, his oldest child, would become a photo artist and photographer in her adult years.
Through her years of photography, she has gathered her dad’s memories and put his personal testimony of WWII, surviving Guam and Iwo Jima, together for you to hear.
Join us for our October Speaker Series as we celebrate Marine Corp. Karl J. Schmidt and his historical story just one day before what would have been his 101st birthday.
