 FrontPage magazine.com :: The Myth of “Premature Anti-Fascism” by Harvey Klehr
An often-cited part of the story is that the veterans of the Lincoln Brigade, rather than being hailed for the prescience of their antifascism, were given the pejorative label “premature antifascist” and punished by an American government even then blinded by hatred of communism.
Another says, “I realized how much ‘the premature antifascists’ as we were called, contributed to save the honor of America” but he did not indicate who did the calling.
One chapter, entitled “Premature Antifascists,” appears to have an indirect but at least contemporaneous documentary source for the governmental origins of “premature antifascist.” Carroll discussed the experiences of two Lincoln veterans, Milton Wolff and Gerald Cook, in the U.S. Army in World War II.
