Papers of Boyle, a columnist and Pulitzer Prize-winning war correspondent who covered World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam conflict for the Associated Press. Primarily documenting his activities as a war correspondent, 1942-1945 and 1950-1951, the collection offers correspondence, press dispatches, and other writings. Although the majority of Boyle's columns and dispatches focus on the life of the ordinary soldier in the European theater, he also commented repeatedly on Generals Omar N. Bradley and George S. Patton, Jr.. Correspondence includes reader mail, three dozen letters from Boyle to his wife written during World War II, and an edited version of other wartime letters. References to Ernie Pyle, Don Whitehead, J. Wes Gallagher, and other correspondents may be found throughout the section. Also present are 40 tablets of handwritten notes related to interviews and some biographical material.
