Here is this weeks interview with World War II veteran, T/5 Leo Weaver. Mr. Weaver has quite the storied life and a family man of men. This, is his life story.

My Veterans History Project continues this week with United States Army veteran, T/5 (Technician Fifth Grade) Leo Weaver. 

Mr. Weaver was with the 1251st Combat Engineer Battalion and had one of the most important jobs of the war. Although he is the first to admit he was never in a foxhole, his job was paramount to those who were and to the vital movement of troops.

If you, or someone you know, would like to share your/their story, I would love to sit down and record it for future generations to see as these videos will all be submitted to the Library of Congress as part of their Veterans History Project. Any veteran is elgibile and I will set interviews with the following priority:

  • Terminally ill from any conflict
  • World War II
  • Korean War
  • Vietnam War
  • All current/modern conflicts
