Collation of Stories
We are thrilled to invite you to be part of something truly meaningful — the preservation of our history as trailblazing women veterans through the Veterans History Project (VHP) at the Library of Congress.
​​
The HERitage Committee has set an exciting goal: to collect 100–150 interviews (or collections) from USAFA Women to contribute to this prestigious national archive. Your stories matter — and we want to ensure they are recorded, honored, and remembered for generations to come.​
​
Your interview will be conducted by a member of our interview team — a fellow USAFA Woman — who understands your experience and is committed to helping you share your story with care and purpose.​
