This week Our History Project pays tribute to all of the fallen Patriots, Soldiers and Private Citizens of our great country who gave their life for our country and for us. Join us this week as we remember our history through a collection of short stories that covers our history from the Revolutionary War to the Current Middle Eastern Conflict.
There are 2, one (1) hour segments that make up this week’s show, but don’t worry about the length of this one. It is fast paced and crammed full of interesting tales which I guarantee you most have never heard. The first segment (hour 1) covers the Revolutionary War to World War II. The second segment (hour 2) covers Korea to the current War on Terror and also includes the American Digger segment of our show.
Each story is from 3 to 10 minutes long and covers a War Story and a Home Front Story from each, so it will be easy to come back to time and time again.
Can’t sit at a computer that long to listen? Burn a disk and take us on a drive to work, school or vacation. We have made the shows so that they can be downloaded and burned, in most cases to 1 CD. Better yet put it on an I-Pod or MP3 player and take us on a jog or out in the yard to cut grass.
In simple terms, Yes! We travel !!!!

About Us
Our History Project, Inc. is a National Non-Profit Organization based in McDonough, GA. Our Mission and Vision is the Preservation and Education of Our United States History.
We are updating
In March of this year we have moved servers and are in the process of moving all of our audio over to our own. It was due to excessive rising cost and the lowering of service that prompted this move. Please bear with us as we make this transition. If there is a show you are looking for and do not see here as of yet, feel free to contact us and we can get you a direct download link.
