Timeline
Harold Vincent "Hal" Boyle (July 24, 1911 – April 1, 1974) was a prolific, Pulitzer-prize-winning journalist for the Associated Press.
During 30 years with the AP, Boyle wrote 7,680 columns.
He is best known for his work as a war correspondent during World War II.
He was consistently closer to the front lines in the European and Pacific theatres of operation than other correspondents.
His column became a staple in over 700 newspapers.
He is also the namesake of a prize given annually to reporters by the Oversees Press Club of America, for the best newspaper or wire service reporting from abroad.
Boyle was born in Kansas City, Missouri, on July 24, 1911, the son of butcher Peter E. Boyle and his wife Margarit, an Irish immigrant farm girl.

After attending the Junior College of Kansas City, he studied journalism at the University of Missouri, graduating with distinction in 1932.

Boyle portrayed himself in the 1945 film dramatization of Ernie Pyle's book, The Story of G.I. Joe.
In 1951, the Veterans of Foreign Wars awarded him the Omar Bradley Award, given for the most distinguished contribution to national security, for his coverage of the Korean War.
In 1951, Boyle contributed a section to a Collier's Weekly special publication entitled Preview of the War We Do Not Want.
Consistent with the book's purpose to depict the effects of a hypothetical future war with another nuclear power, Boyle's piece (entitled "Washington Under the Bomb") described, in the form of a news story, the aftermath of dropping one nuclear bomb on Washington D.C.
In 1969 the Associated Press published ''Help, Help!
Another Day!: The World of Hal Boyle.''
