Veteran’s History Project

Scope/Content:

The Veteran’s History Project, sponsored by the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress has as its goal the collection and preservation of stories of wartime service. Since 2003, students in Professor Joseph Fitzharris’ introductory history classes have participated in the collection process for this project. Transcripts of the interviews plus audio and video recording are preserved in this collection.

A database with more detailed information on each veteran's branch of service and can be accessed at the American Folklife Center’s Veteran’s History Project website:
