MPB is also proud to be bringing you a new program, The Mississippi Experience - The War, debuting on September 25th . Through The Mississippian blog, we want to hear the voice of Mississippians and the thoughts and memories Mississippians have from the era. Also visit The War site on <a href="http://www.mpbonline.org/television/specials/TheWar/index.htm">www.mpbonline.org</a>. There you can submit your WW II stories and memories and share them nationally through PBS. You can write your story and send it to them electronically, or you can phone in your story to a 1-800 number and they'll post it for you.<br /><br />We also have a photo gallery set up so you can send your WWII era photos to MPB and we'll put them on our site to highlight the role Mississippians played during The War.<br /><br />Schedule information for The War:<br /><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/a_necessary_war.eps">THE WAR "A Necessary War"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">December 1941-December 1942 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/23/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:30 pm</td> <td><strong></strong><br /></td> <td><strong></strong><br /></td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/23/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:30-1:00 am</td> <td><strong><br /></strong></td> <td><strong></strong><br /></td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/03/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:30 pm</td> <td><strong> </strong><br /></td> <td><strong><br /></strong></td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/when_things_get_tough.eps">THE WAR "When Things Get Tough"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">January 1943-December 1943 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/24/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:00 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/24/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:00-0:00 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/10/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:00 pm</td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/a_deadly_calling.eps">THE WAR "A Deadly Calling"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">November 1943-June 1944 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/25/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:00 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/25/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:00-0:00 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/17/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:00 pm</td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/pride_of_our_nation.eps">THE WAR "Pride of Our Nation"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">June 1944-August 1944 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/26/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:30 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/26/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:30-1:00 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/24/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:30 pm</td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/fubar.eps">THE WAR "FUBAR"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">September 1944-December 1944 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/30/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:30 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>09/30/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:30-1:00 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/31/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:30 pm</td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div><div class="episode"> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/the_ghost_front.eps">THE WAR "The Ghost Front"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">December 1944-March 1945 </div> <div class="schedule"> <table> <tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/01/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:03 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/01/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:03-0:04 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>11/07/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:01 pm</td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div> </div> <h5><a href="http://pressroom.pbs.org/programs/the_war/a_world_without_war.eps">THE WAR "A World Without War"</a></h5> <div class="epi_abstract">March 1945-September 1945 </div> <table><tbody><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/02/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>8:00-10:30 pm</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>10/02/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>10:30-1:00 am</td> </tr><tr> <td><strong>Airdate : </strong>11/14/2007 </td> <td><strong>Time : </strong>9:00-11:30 pm</td> </tr></tbody></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24618278-6417598058034221966?l=themississippian.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>MPB Onlinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18240474273132961951noreply@blogger.com0
