ERNIE PYLE. Sad tale but also heartwarming. Wanna know more?

ERNIE PYLE was a PULITZER-PRIZE WINNING American journalist and war correspondent

He was the guy who interviewed GI's and wrote about them so the folks back home knew what was going on.

He was killed in action April 18, 1945 on the island of Le Shima. Taken down by Japanese machinegun fire.

He was 44 years old.

How many lies do you think he told when he reported from the front? Was he "the enemy of the people"? Or was he a hero?
