Storytelling America: Veteran Stories - 3
South Dakota Veterans Home Stories
South Dakota storyteller, Rick Lingberg, visited the Michael J. Fitzmaurice State Veterans Home on July 23 to share his stories and to preserve some new ones. "Real history is a compilation of people's stories and experiences. However, only a very small amount of that is ever preserved and unfortunately lost for all of time," says Lingberg. "I think it's important that we do everything we can to preserve those stories even if it's just one story at a time," he added.

For nearly 3 decades I've been involved with the recording and preservation of American stories.
No stories stand more worthy than those of the American veterans who have so bravely and unselfishly dedicated their lives to the preservation of the freedoms we enjoy in this country.
It is with great pleasure and a true honor that StoryTelling America (a production of For Your Information) can provide this forum so you can view and appreciate these veterans and their stories as much as we do.
