Timeline
The two greatest American war correspondents of World War II were Edward R. Murrow on radio and Ernie Pyle in print. Murrow is more famous today because he survived the war to do some of the best television journalism in the early days of that medium. However, during the war, Pyle was more popular, especially among the GIs at the front. He made a point of staying with the GIs, sharing their food, their fears and homesickness, and getting to know them better than any other correspondent. A great restlessness drove Pyle. A few months before graduating, he dropped out of Indiana University's journalism school to work at a small-town newspaper. In 1932, after nine years as an editor, he quit to become a roving correspondent in Depression-era America. As he later did with the GIs, he lived among the downtrodden and the survivors of the Depression and told America about them. His simple, vivid writing made readers believe they personally knew the people he wrote about. When the war broke out, he went to London and wrote from the locals' homes and the bomb shelters during the Blitz. From there he went to North Africa where he began his close association with the GIs. Through his writing, people on the home front felt a little closer to their sons and fathers and brothers across the ocean, and grew to know their lives in the foxholes. From North Africa he went with the GIs to Sicily, Italy and France.
His writing won him several journalism awards, including the 1944 Pulitzer Prize. A few months after D-Day, fatigue caught up with him. He apologetically returned to America to rest, but not for long. Restlessnes and a sense of duty drove him to return to the front lines, this time with the Marines in the Pacific Theater. He joined the Marines at Iwo Jima and followed them to Okinawa.
He went ashore on April 17, 1945.
