Doctor's wartime journals featured in History Center exhibit

Veteran Dr. John Linner from Edina kept diaries of the fighting he saw during World War II, but after the war he put them on a shelf for 50 years until his daughters and wife pressed him to write about his experiences. The result is his book, "From Normandy to Okinawa," Linner's look back at his Navy service as a medical doctor tending to the wounded on D-Day and in the Pacific. Dr. Linner's account is part of the Minnesota Historical Society's Greatest Generation exhibit which opens tomorrow.
