HISTORY CORPS:
STUDENT INTERVIEW PROGRAM
Becoming a Digital Intern and Member of Our Navy Memorial Team
The purpose of this National initiative is to archive and preserve the stories of our Nation’s Veterans, Active Duty Personnel, Civilian Government Employees, and Family Members of Veterans to ensure that their stories are remembered by present and future generations. Many schools throughout the Nation assign students to conduct an oral history of a family member or loved one and report on their findings. This program takes that a step further by ensuring that the stories of our Nation’s past are preserved forever.
