Operation Song® is proud to announce its WWII Preservation Project. This project involves the release of special videos, with a new one released each Saturday leading up to Veterans Day on Saturday, November 11, 2023.

Over the past few years, Operation Song® has been meeting with WWII veterans to help tell their stories through its songwriting program. We are ready to share the stories of these heroes not only through song but also via short interview video documentaries. We plan to release one of these videos each Saturday leading up to Veterans Day. We hope you tune in and enjoy these stories of our greatest generation.
