Tom Brokaw Honored With West Point Award

AP: "WEST POINT, N.Y. — Tom Brokaw became only the second journalist to be honored with a prestigious West Point award Thursday." I read his autobiography a few years back. It was very interesting. I had just finished a Bronx historians book about the Bronx in it's frontier era, the 17th century and it was an interesting comparison to read an excellent reporter's memories of growing up on another American "frontier". Bravo! Congratulations! Hooruh! Source: Newsvine - Tom Brokaw Honored With West Point Award ** Walter Cronkite is the other. He is also an "Overseer" of the National Maritime Historical Society, Peekskill, NY.
