The United States Congress created the Veterans History Project in 2000 with Public Law 106-380 and it was signed into law by President William Jefferson Clinton on October 27, 2000. The primary focus of the project is to gather first hand accounts of U.S. Veterans from the following 20th Century wars: World War I (1914-1920), World War II (1939-1946), Korean War (1950-1955), Vietnam War (1961-1975), Persian Gulf War (1990-1995), and the Afghanistan and Iraq conflicts (2001-present). In addition, those U.S. citizen civilians who were actively involved in supporting war efforts (such as war industry workers, USO workers, flight instructors, medical volunteers, etc.) are also invited to share their valuable stories.
