Archivist wants to record WWII veterans' stories
A resurgence of interest in World War II might be helpful in collecting data about North Carolinians who served then and in other facets of the military, the state's military archivist said.
Ret. Lt. Col. Sion Harrington III of the Archives and Records Section of the state Division of Historical Resources, has spent the last 10 years compiling a roster of North Carolinians who have served in various branches of the military. He has already gathered thousands of photos and documents, plus 500 interviews of veterans collected for an oral history.
