that started as a project and has grown into a full blown museum. Stephen Ambrose was the director up until his death. they have the largest collection of WWII vet's individual oral histories in existence. anyone who was involved in WWII can hae their history included. Ambrose relied heavily upon the interviews he did for the museum in writing his books. (Citizen Soldiers, D-Day, Band of Brothers, etc.)
