Abstract
The goal of this project was to collect stories from D-Day and World War II veterans in order to keep their memories alive. Through my thesis, I explored the personal and cultural significance of documenting first-person accounts of surviving veterans. Using video, audio and advanced technology to create and capture these stories, this thesis presents personal narratives of service in war time. The creative portion of my thesis includes a short documentary that includes video from Paris, London and Normandy that I captured during my study abroad. These packages detail the experiences of D-Day and World War II veterans and the impact each veteran has left on American society.
