The United States Congress created the Veterans History Project (VHP) in 2000 as part of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress (LOC). VHP’s purpose is to collect, preserve, and make accessible the personal accounts of America’s wartime veterans so future generations may hear directly from them and better understand their selfless service.

My office is helping to facilitate sending veterans' stories to the LOC and will be conducting oral interviews. If you are a veteran and would like to share your oral history, or you live in the 4th Congressional District and would like to help our office interview veterans and collect their stories, please contact Diane Hubbard at diane.hubbard@mail.house.gov or call the Danville District Office at 317-563-5567 for more information.

The extraordinary bravery and sacrifices of our veterans inspire us, and they deserve to be remembered forever. To view interviews, visit www.loc.gov/vets.
