Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to record and preserve the memories of American war veterans living in the Oxford area. The researcher interviewed local veterans and recorded their recollections in a narrative way, similar to how a feature story is written for publication in a newspaper or magazine. The results of this project demonstrate the stark contrast in a veterans’ experiences based on differences in background, faith, family and decision-making. The stories are written so that they might be passed on to future generations.
