Hi - I stumbled across this recently:

http://www.loc.gov/folklife/vets/

"The U.S. Congress created the Veterans History Project in October 2000. The
legislation calls upon the American Folklife Center at the Library of
Congress to collect and preserve audio- and video-taped oral histories,
along with documents such as letters, diaries, maps, photographs, and home
movies, of America's war veterans and those who served in support of them
during World War I, World War II, and the Korean, Vietnam, and Persian Gulf
wars."

So far it looks like the offerings are only audio/video but hopefully more
materials will be added soon.

Elizabeth
