On September 27, 2007, the Ball State History Department and WIPB-TV presented a Digital Media Experience, "Echoes of War: Stories from the Big Red One," a live, interactive program combining pre-produced video context and interviews with members of the most celebrated American units of World War II, the 1st Infantry Division (the Big Red One), and associated units. The program was originally broadcast live from the First Division Museum at Cantigny in Wheaton, Illinois. The program was produced as a supplement to Ken Burns' "The War," his fourteen-hour documentary about World War II.  Whereas Burns covered the broad sweep of World War II, "Echoes of War" focused more narrowly on the First Infantry Division.  Burns provided a video introduction and conclusion to BSU's program. You can now follow this link to view the two different programs that aired, five webisodes in the video gallery, sample artifacts from the First Division Museum, biographical sketches of the participating veterans and useful Internet links.  Click on the dogtag for "teacher login" and receive a password for access to interactive activities useful in classroom settings, including lesson plans, video, and PowerPoint presentations.
