What if I forgot to include something? Can I add to an existing collection?
Yes. When submitting additional materials, be sure to enclose a note instructing Veterans History Project (VHP) staff to “add to an existing collection.” Include the veteran's name, date of birth and VHP collection number. There is no need to complete the Biographical Data or Release forms when submitting items to be added to an existing collection.
