Creator
Sean Jacobson, an employee at the Smithsonian Museum of American History, has compiled several images that highlight the role of chocolate during World War II. In addition, he supplements the Smithonian’s archival images with family images of his grandfather’s time in the service. I found this source through the Smithsonian website. I searched, “images,” “Hershey,” and “WWII.” This source includes many unique images that have been compiled from several other Smithsonian collections.
