"Camp Boardwalk" and the War at the Jersey Shore

This lecture examines how the government responded to Pearl Harbor by turning Atlantic City, NJ into a military training facility and rehabilitation center. At the same time, German U-boats stationed off the Jersey coast torpedoed commercial shipping exposing the vulnerability of America's eastern seaboard. Join us for this fascinating wartime tale in the waters of Atlantic City. Speaker: Jeffrey Margolis
