What Is the Iraq War Really Like? The Veterans Tell Their Stories
By ALAN FEUER
One hears a lot of talk about the Iraq war — talk of casualties,
quagmires, exit strategies. What is not heard much are the voices of
those who fight the war. A veteran’s story cuts across divides, cuts
through politics. It has a way of silencing a room.
On Veterans Day in 2000, Gov. George E. Pataki established the New York
State Veteran Oral History Program to preserve the stories of New York
veterans in their own words. The program is run out of a small state
armory in Saratoga Springs where two men, Michael Russert and Wayne D.
Clarke, who work for the New York State Military Museum, conduct
interviews in a casual style on videotape.
