Our little town of 6000+ had quite a draw this past month when Bret Baier came to speak about his newly published book, Three Days in January: Dwight Eisenhower’s Final Mission.  

There is certainly a stigma about famous people in our society and I was pleasantly surprised with how wonderful and kind Bret and his family were. They are people just like you and me, although they may spend a lot more time in front of a camera.  Abilene was truly blessed to have them all come and spend a little time at Eisenhower’s home town.  Bret spoke about his passion for Eisenhower, and Abilene has been blessed by his work and passion for sharing a part of Eisenhower’s history. 

Thank you for allowing me capture this special event for our community.
