SUMMARY:Exhibit: Missing\, Then Action: An Army Wife Speaks out
DESCRIPTION:In June 1965\, Kansan Kathleen Johnson received word that her husband\, U.S. Army Major Bruce Johnson was missing. \nFor four years\, she waited—then\, she sought answers for her three young children. This is her story of love\, loss\, waiting – and action. \nKathleen Johnson of Salina\, Kansas was a founding member of the National League of Families of Prisoners and Missing in Southeast Asia. These brave military wives from across the country spoke out\, against government policy\, to seek recognition\, answers\, and accounting for their prisoner of war (POW) and missing in action (MIA) husbands during Vietnam. Some national leaders\, including Senator Bob Dole\, became fervent advocates for them in the halls of the U.S. government. \nThis special exhibit is made possible by ITC Great Plains. \n

SUMMARY:Fort Leavenworth: Angela Riotto and Derek Mallett: “Prisoners of War as Military Intelligence in the Civil War and World War 2"
DESCRIPTION:During the Second World War\, the US military interrogated over 3\,000 German Prisoners of War at a secret facility at Fort Hunt\, Virginia. These interrogations offer fascinating perspectives of the German situation in the final year of the war and allow us to evaluate how well American authorities knew its enemy at the time. \nDerek Mallett is currently an associate professor in the Department of Military History at the US Army Command and General Staff College\, Fort Belvoir\, Virginia satellite campus. His research interests include the Second World War\, prisoners of war\, military intelligence\, war and public memory\, and national security. \nAngela Riotto received her Ph.D. from the University of Akron. Her research examines the ways in which both U.S. and Confederate former prisoners of war discussed their captivity between 1861 and 1930. She currently teaches with the Department of Military History at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College as an Assistant Professor.

SUMMARY:President Juan Manuel Santos
DESCRIPTION:The Dole Institute of Politics will honor Juan Manuel Santos\, former President of Colombia with the 2022 Dole Leadership Prize. \nThe Dole Leadership Prize is a bipartisan award presented annually to an individual who demonstrates the importance of involvement in political and civic affairs.

As a result of his commitment to achieve peace in Colombia\, he was the sole recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2016 for “his resolute efforts to bring the country’s more than 50-year-long civil war to an end\,” according to the Norwegian Nobel Committee. \nThe program will take place at the Dole Institute of Politics at 7 p.m. on September 20. A book sale and signing will take place after the program. Attendees can purchase the English translation of Santos’ book\, The Battle for Peace: The Long Road to Ending a War with the World’s Oldest Guerrilla Army\, published by the University Press of Kansas.
