World War II historian Jiří Klůc, a doctoral student at Charles University in Prague, is traveling from the Czech Republic to capture first-hand oral histories of remaining WWII veterans in Iowa. His presentation, “Stories of Czech-Americans in WWII,” will take place from 5-6:30 p.m. Thursday, June 27, in the theater of the National Czech & Slovak Museum & Library, and will include stories of veterans gathered during his research. The event, sponsored by the Czech Heritage Foundation, is free and open to the public.
