Developed in response to an effort by the Library of Congress to collect first-hand narratives of U.S. military veterans, the Illinois Veterans History Project (IVHP) creates a permanent record of the names and stories of our veterans to ensure that their sacrifices and contributions are not forgotten.

The collection contains more than 6,700 records from Illinois veterans, including 675 oral histories, dating from the Civil War to those serving on active duty.
