Join us on March 23 as Historian Dr. Stephanie Hinnershitz presents Chocolate Goes to War: How Candy Became a Staple for Troops! From Hershey's brick-like "D ration bar" that tasted little better than a boiled potato to the Mars company's more palatable, candy-coated M&Ms, chocolate could be found across the European and Pacific Theaters of World War II. Come learn more from Dr. Stephanie Hinnershitz, Historian, Institute for the Study of War and Democracy, about how chocolate fueled the war effort.
