Veterans History Project

The Library of Congress in conjunction with the American Folklife Center has been working for the last 11 years to compile the history of American veterans and civilians involved in war efforts.

Plains Story Share will be volunteering to facilitate interviews to donate to the Library of Congress archives and is looking for anyone who is a veteran, a family member or friend of a veteran who is interested in recording their wartime experiences. Please look over the information on this site and contact me for more information about how to proceed. We can conduct the interview or simply be there to record and hand over the donation.

This is really an incredible project and I believe stories should live on! Support each other by listening - check out their website to hear examples of recorded stories, subscribe to their RSS or podcast.
