Voices from the Second World War

For each interviewee, there is an introductory narrative that summarizes the interviewee and gives brief quotes, a full narrative, and the full transcript of the interview.  While we have attempted to include all the subjects that the interviewees discussed in both the introduction and the full narrative, the full transcript includes the most specific information.  Some of the interviewees provided us with pictures of themselves and we have included these on the introductory page.  The interviewees have very different and interesting stories, we invite you to read them all.  If you like to view the entire Voices of the Second World War Collection, it is permanently housed at the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center at the University of Connecticut.
