HMTC welcomes Professor Beverley Eddy who will draw from her recent book, Ritchie Boy Secrets, as she presents a program about the “Alien” soldiers at Camp Ritchie who helped the Allies win World War II. Professor Eddy will speak about the antisemitism and racism that some of the men faced, the training that was offered at Camp Ritchie, and the performance of the men in the field and after the war. (This program is held in conjunction with The Dolphin Bookshop, an independent bookstore in Port Washington since 1946.)
