§ 2142

1 So in original. Probably should be ‘‘complementary’’.
(1) Military service during a time of war is
the highest sacrifice a citizen may make for
his or her country.
(2) 4,700,000 Americans served in World War I,
16,500,000 Americans served in World War II,
6,800,000 Americans served in the Korean Con-
flict, 9,200,000 Americans served in the Viet-
nam Conflict, 3,800,000 Americans served in the
Persian Gulf War, and countless other Ameri-
cans served in military engagements overseas
throughout the 20th century.
(3) The Department of Veterans Affairs re-
ports that there are almost 19,000,000 war vet-
erans living in this Nation today.
(4) Today there are only approximately 3,400
living veterans of World War I, and of the
some 6,000,000 veterans of World War II alive
today, almost 1,500 die each day.
(5) Oral histories are of immeasurable value
to historians, researchers, authors, journal-
ists, film makers, scholars, students, and citi-
zens of all walks of life.
(6) War veterans possess an invaluable re-
source in their memories of the conflicts in
which they served, and can provide a rich his-
tory of our Nation and its people through the
retelling of those memories, yet frequently
those who served during times of conflict are
reticent to family and friends about their ex-
periences.
(7) It is in the Nation’s best interest to col-
lect and catalog oral histories of American
war veterans so that future generations will
have original sources of information regarding
the lives and times of those who served in war
and the conditions under which they endured,
so that Americans will always remember those
who served in war and may learn first-hand of
