Thank you for joining us this year to celebrate the work of the Pritzker Military Museum & Library and honor the service and stories of the U.S. Armed Forces’ citizen soldiers, past and present.
We were honored to present World War II veteran and Senator, Bob Dole, with the inaugural Citizen Soldier Award for his outstanding service and sacrifice. We were also proud to recognize Colonel David M. Glantz, recipient of the Pritzker Literature Award, for his many contributions to the field of military history.
To protect everyone’s health and safety, the Pritzker Military Liberty Gala was held as a virtual event this year. Although we were unable to come together in person, we enjoyed celebrating our many achievements and future plans made possible by the extraordinary support from our friends and sponsors.
You can still support the Pritzker Military Museum & Library by making a donation at the link above. Raffle tickets are available until October 22, 2020 at 5 PM Central Time.
