The GVSU Veterans History Project was established in 2006 to collect, record and archive oral history interviews and other materials relating to the experiences of military veterans of all eras, as well as of civilians and foreign nationals with stories relating to the American experience in wartime. We work in partnership with the Library of Congress Veterans History Project, and are one of a small number of archiving partners across the country. As an archiving partner, we post our interview videos and other materials on a website that is part of the Special Collections of the GVSU Library. To access the GVSU Veterans History Project official website, please follow this link www.gvsu.edu/vethistory/
Veterans, families, and friends: To sign up to be interviewed, to recommend a friend or relative to be interviewed, or to find out more about the interview process, please contact Dr. James Smither at Grand Valley State University: (616) 331-3422 or smitherj@gvsu.edu

Rock that my brother and I would read about in our "chore-money"bought comic books......We were borne from their generation--my Dad was a Torpedoman in a Nuclear sub,the USS Pulaski,from `65-`69..........but the VietNam war was an "infatuation"for me and this interview was one of the peaks,one of the best interviews I`ve had the pleasure to hear.............Thanx
