The Texas Veterans Land Board celebrated Veterans Day 2011 with the opening of a Voices of Veterans program exhibit called “Every Veteran has a Story to Tell.” The interactive, multimedia exhibit opened on November 11, 2011, and closed at the end of September 2012, at the Texas Capitol Visitors Center in the historic Old Land Office on the Capitol grounds at 112 E. 11th St. in Austin, Texas. The “Every Veteran has a Story to Tell” exhibit included this short video on the Voices of Veterans program, multimedia iPad kiosks with selections from veterans’ interviews, and personal memorabilia. Twelve Texas veterans of four wars – World War II, Vietnam and both Iraq wars- were featured in videos about courage, duty, fear and survival as part of the exhibit.
