The Technical College of the Lowcountry is proud to partner with the Library of Congress and Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island to host veterans for a day of storytelling and filming.
The Veterans History Project of the Library of Congress Center is a national initiative to collect, preserve, and make accessible the personal accounts of American war veterans so that future generations may hear directly from veterans and better understand the realities of war.
Filming and Collection Day will take place from 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, July 31, on Parris Island. Veterans who are interested in sharing their stories are asked to complete a brief online form at www.tcl.edu/vhp. TCL will then follow up individually to provide details.
Participating veterans will enjoy a catered lunch, access to the Parris Island Museum, and base tours (free of charge) as they share their invaluable stories, pictures, and letters in a personal one-on-one setting.
Visit www.tcl.edu/vhp for more information or contact Christina Welsch-Copeland, Veterans Services Director, at 843 525-8264 or cwelsch-copeland@tcl.edu.
