 Featured objects include propaganda posters from the Sullivan Museum’s own 
 collection, on loan from the Robert Hull Fleming Museum of Art &amp; Anthro
 pology in Burlington, and the Pritzker Military Museum &amp; Library in Chi

 ommunicated to the country. Also on exhibit will be a rare complete “Hello 
 Girls” uniform, on generous loan from Norwich alumnus James Mullin. Hello G
 irls were bilingual switchboard operators who served in the U.S. Army Signa
 l Corps during World War I.\nOther objects on display include trench art, u
 niforms, medals and objects from the field. The exhibit also includes a lis

  War,” co-sponsored by the Vermont Humanities Council.\nFor more informatio
