As the nation prepares to pause for Memorial Day, we honor all who have given their lives in defense of the United States. And we remain committed to remembering their stories of service and those of all who have served.

This week on "Veterans Chronicles," we take a very rare break from our conversations with our veterans to discuss why it is important for all veterans to consider writing or telling their story of service to our nation.

Our guest is Monica Mohindra, director of the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress. In our conversation, Mohindra explains the mission of the Veterans History Project and why collecting the oral histories of our veterans is so important. She also offers tips on how best to capture an oral history, and issues a plea for histories from a specific group of veterans.
