WWII Veterans. From Generation to Generation is a leading producer in North Carolina of WWII Veteran stories.
Our company, along with over 500 members of the Association of Personal Historians (a nonprofit international organization promoting oral history), has an agreement with the Library of Congress to support their Veterans History Project by recording veterans’ stories which are then archived into its American Folklife Center.
Locally, we are pleased to have recorded the stories of 20 World War II Veterans from Iredell County, NC. These men and women represent some of the best from “the greatest generation ever.” It has been our honor to share in preserving the wartime stories of these veterans and to place them with the Library of Congress where they will become part of the American story.
Working with our local veterans was deeply personal for David, as his father was a World War II veteran, and his brother is a seven-time decorated Vietnam Veteran, who survived four major campaigns and was injured four times in twelve months. Because of this, we will continue to partner with the Library of Congress to preserve the stories of veterans of all wars.
If you are a veteran, contact us and let us help you tell your story. If you have a relative or friend who is a veteran, let us help your veteran enter his/her experience of active service into the historical archives so it can be a part of the American story.
“I had heard some of the stories that my dad told but there were others that were new to me…I would urge everyone to do this project with their parents and grandparents so the family stories can live on…this was a great project.”
-Tip Nicholson
