Vet History Project Features Interviews

Week of November 02, 2009

The Veterans History Project (VHP) at the Library of Congress American Folklife Center is currently featuring the interviews of United States Coast Guard and Merchant Marine veterans in "They Also Served" -- a website with a dozen first-person accounts of those who went to sea to transport troops, deliver vital supplies, protect our shores, and patrol enemy waters. These one-of-a-kind stories can be found at the Veterans History Project website at www.loc.gov/vets/. Volunteer interviewers for the project may request information at vohp@loc.gov or the toll-free message line at (888) 371-5848.
