Project records veterans' history

The Missouri Veterans History Project is hoping Missouri's veterans will tell the story of their time in service so it can be archived for both the state and nation as a whole.

Rep. Jill Schupp (D-Creve Couer) was standing on the house floor when she was shocked to hear that funding for an oral history project would be cut and the project would not continue,.

Schupp worked with the university to get their support and the backing of students and faculty.

Through the collaboration, the Missouri Veterans History Project was created.
