On November 16, 1952, the New York Times published John Clellon Holmes' article, "This is the Beat Generation." In it, he credited Jack Kerouac with the term:

"It was John Kerouac, the author of a fine, neglected novel 'The Town and the City,' who finally came up with it. It was several years ago, when the face was harder to recognize, but he has a sharp, sympathetic eye, and one day he said, 'You know, this is really a beat generation.'"

The soldier driving the jeep that Ernie Pyle was in was from my hometown. Talked to him about it.
...and what did he say about it?

Teared up talking about it. Said their jeep was hit and damaged and they all went for cover. Said when Pyle was hit they were pinned down and he couldn’t get to him. Mr. Maxwell was his name. Typical WWII hero who never wanted credit or the spotlight.

I read a biography on Ernie Pyle when I was in school. Very interesting person.

Atlantic City, NJ beach, 1905 (Steel Pier in the background)

Are these Hotel workers? Look closely; They don't seem to look happy.

Would YOU be happy if your only option for the beach was New Jersey?

It does, but it's not. The sand in south Joisey is very soft, and very fine.

Pyle's wife was a raging alcoholic, and probably had some other issues.
