Veterans: tell us your stories. If you are a veteran of the second World War, or a family member of a veteran, we'd like to record your stories as part of our outreach initiative. The collection of stories will be stored at Minnetrista in Muncie, and copies will be forwarded to the Veterans History Project at The Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. To submit your story online, click here, or email lgeorgi@bsu.edu.
