da Updates from the Veterans History Project (VHP): By memory.loc.gov Published On :: Wed, 21 Nov 2018 15:02:24 -0600 VHP shares in the remembrances of Dr. James Billington, who amongst his vast legacy also welcomed Congress’ enactment of the “Veterans Oral History Project.” Responding to legislators’ directive to the Library of Congress American Folklife Center, Billington proffered that “these histories will be an invaluable resource for future generations and will become part of the nation's vast historical record that the Library of Congress has preserved for 200 years." A champion of the Project, and a veteran himself of the United States Army, Billington leveraged his military service as a VHP interviewer, expanding the Library’s collections to include oral histories with Lieutenant General Julius Becton, Jr., General Andrew J. Goodpaster, Captain John W. Kluge, and Colonel Mary Louise Rasmuson nee Milligan. The mission of the Veterans History Project of the Library of Congress American Folklife Center is to collect, preserve and make accessible the personal accounts of U.S. veterans so that future generations may hear directly from veterans and better understand the realities of war.
