Description
Morale is important in any conflict. Canadian army officials during the Second World War spent much energy defining and measuring morale. Their tools ranged from public relations campaigns, censorship reports, films, and questionnaires. This talk will focus on the problem of selling the Canadian army in 1941 to a wary public, a wary prime minister, and even more wary soldiers.
