Working with the Library of Congress, there is a very structured format to the videos that we submit. We have to adhere to certain guidelines, regarding content and duration. Veterans are able to include their own photos, or to be interviewed by a family member if they so desire. What we have done at Middlesex is provide students and/or staff who will conduct the interviews, as well as work the cameras at our partner, LTC. We're trying to make it as easy as possible for the veterans to just have to show up and tell their story. If anyone is interested, you can contact MaryAnne Mungovan at MCC at 978-656-3267 or MUNGOVANM@middlesex.mass.edu or Paul Corbett at Congresswoman Tsongas' office at 978-459-0101. Hope that helps!

I believe the show is called A Veteran's Story. Dean Contover does a similar program in Chelmsford. I assume both Bob and Dean could submit (and may already be doing so) past and future recordings of their programs to the Veterans History Project although I'm not sure what additional requirements (specific releases of rights, for example), that this more formal program overseen by the Library of Congress might have. I have seen a Middlesex Community College produced program on LTC in which veterans are interviewed. I assume those interviews are the ones now being transported to Washington.
