Oral History Teams to Collect Memories of WWII Vets

Teams of volunteers with the Library of Congress Veterans History Project are fanning out across the National Mall beginning Friday to collect stories from World War II veterans. The goal is to collect as many oral histories as possible. All Things Considered follows one of those teams, and listens in on some of those stories.
