Abstract
The Clemson Veterans Project exist to honor the stories of combat veterans from conflicts throughout our country's history and do so in a professional manner expected from a university with such a rich military heritage. The project collected over 70 interviews in HD video. All videos have been made public on Youtube. The project was started to assist the Library of Congress with its own Veterans History Project. Before interviewing each student must take an exam on the digital file preparation process, interview courtesy, and then conduct a practice interview where they behave exactly as if it was a real interview. The videos are put onto DVDs along with accompanying documentation and then shipped in bulk. Going above the requirements for the LoC, each shipment contains a flash drive with every video and document in a digital format. Special interviews are selected for post-production including a custom made introduction.
