During the 28th National Veterans Wheelchair Games in Omaha, Nebraska, the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Library of Congress invite you to be part of an important national effort – The Veterans History Project (VHP).
This project is meant to honor YOU, our nation’s veterans, by creating a lasting legacy of your military experience. Regardless of your branch or period of service, age, military career or experience, we need your story. Share it with us – and help make history come alive!
Your 45-minute interview will be recorded. The DVD of that interview will be given to the Library of Congress – where YOU and YOUR STORY will become part of our Nation’s official historical records. In appreciation, you will receive a VHP Tote Bag, a personal DVD copy of your interview, and a Veterans History Project “Challenge” coin.
What: YOUR STORY … told by YOU!
When: YOUR VHP INTERVIEW WILL BE SCHEDULED AT YOUR CONVENIENCE DURING THE 28th NATIONAL VETERANS WHEELCHAIR GAMES.
