Description
Veterans History Project (VHP) is an effort to preserve at the Library of Congress (LOC), veterans’ oral histories that detail their military wartime service, and to increase public awareness of these historical events. Veterans’ military stories are digitally recorded and this DVD living history is sent to the LOC and archived for present and future generations to view. These invaluable historical digital recordings are also becoming a permanent collection in the Maxwell Library for our community to view and use in their studies. This presentation will consist of showing a 2-3 minute clip of an oral history of a veteran and information regarding the project.
