Dr. Gray speaks about Germany with Kentland Rotary
Purdue University Associate Professor Dr. William Gray was the guest speaker at Monday’s Kentland Rotary meeting. He spoke on mistakes made by Germany in World War I and some misconceptions about that time period. Gray noted that the biggest mistake made by Germany in the war was its unwillingness to stop fighting and to hold out for absolute victory. “This eventually drew the Untied States into the war and eventually to Germany’s defeat,” said Gray. “The loss of the war and the strict punishment given to the country, along with some other factors led to the country following some darker ideas and eventually into World War II.” Pictured, Gray (right) was the guest of Rotarian Brandt Stum. The Oct. 20 program will be about the Servants At Work, Inc. (SAWs). SAWs is a non-profit, all volunteer ministry that builds wheelchair ramps to provide persons with disabilities and people with conditions of aging access to their world and the freedom to remain in their communities.
