Remembering Our Veterans is a novel "living history" video memoir program in which VA staff and volunteers, using a list of comprehensive interview questions, engage inpatient, outpatient, and nursing home Veterans in meaningful conversations about their military service and other significant life experiences on camera, resulting in HD video recordings. These recordings are shared with family members and loved ones and can also be used for mass public viewing, VA memorialization efforts, including the National Cemetery Administration’s Veterans Legacy Memorial, and research, academic, and public education efforts, including the Library of Congress’ Veterans History Project. Clinical applications of the program can include it being utilized as a form of reminiscence therapy for veterans with dementia, including Alzheimer's Disease, and as an avenue to help make VA patient experiences even better by extending an engaging program to them. To learn more about the Remembering Our Veterans program, please contact your local VA Center for Development and Civic Engagement office.
