Veterans History Project

Are you a veteran who wants to share your story? The office of Congressman Michael Cloud is collaborating with the Library of Congress to launch the Veterans History Project in TX-27.

The Veterans History Project collects, preserves, and makes accessible the firsthand accounts of American wartime veterans so that future generations may learn about veterans’ experiences in their own words to better understand the realities of war.

American war veterans who reside in the 27th Congressional District are encouraged to register to be interviewed for the Veterans History Project. After an interview is completed, it is archived with the Library of Congress and made available for all citizens to watch and cherish the sacrifices of these courageous servicemen and women.

If you are interested in participating in the Veterans History Project, please download the two PDFs below and return the completed forms by email to mary.hilton@mail.house.gov.
