The Veterans History Project was honored to be a part of the National World War II Reunion. Throughout the four-day reunion, the Veterans History Project volunteers collected hundreds of stories on the National Mall (using tape-recorders) and in the pavilion (using laptop computers).

In addition, each day, special programs presented compelling accounts from a variety of topics, including POWs, Tuskegee Airmen, Code Talkers, Women in Wartime, and D-Day veterans. These panels have been preserved and are now available as Webcasts (select from the menu on the right). Also, we are adding photos each day, giving a glimpse of the activities of the weekend. Please come back often to view more images.

The Veterans History Project wants your story!

The United States Congress created the Veterans History Project (VHP) to preserve the memories of veterans and those who served in support of them. VHP's collections are a growing part of the Library of Congress' American Folklife Center, where people today and future generations can learn history from those who lived it.
