In the spring of 2016 veterans from VFW Post 10721 Minturn came in weekly on Wednesdays to be interviewed by EVTV student journalists during class for the Veterans History Project. Before the full interviews were able to be sent to the Library of Congress to be archived, the files were wiped from the computers, resulting in the loss of many veteran interviews. A couple of the original profiles remain. This profile of Dave Schneider was made by Hayden Gitchell ’16 during that time and is one of the profiles that was able to be recovered.

The Vail Daily published a profile about Sid Spain in June of 2020.
