Albion Veteran Project

The Local History Room Veterans Project was completed in 2002 by Leslie Dick, Public Historian, with volunteer assistance from Robert Geyer and Guy Vitale. Veterans of all conflicts and branches of service participated, sharing their experiences for researchers and future generations. The interviews were videotaped for the Local History Archives and edited for broadcast on Public Access Television, Broadstripe Channel 10.

The tapes are currently in the process of being digitized and saved in DVD format. As they are completed, copies of the DVDs will be available for checkout at the Albion District Library.

If you would like to talk to someone in regards to this project, please contact Jennifer Wood at email history@albionlibrary.org.
