Real People. Real Leadership.
The Founding Team
Led by a founding team with a clear mandate: establish a permanent national institution for veteran stories at America’s 250th Anniversary.
Honor the service. Preserve the story. Build the legacy.
American Veteran Vault is being established on July 4, 2026 as a permanent national institution for military stories, family legacies, and service histories — across every era of American service.
Vietnam · Desert Storm · Iraq · Afghanistan · Post-9/11
Built with a governance model, advisory council, and founding charter — designed to outlast any technology cycle, funding period, or administration.
The archive is free. It always will be. Funded by Charter Founders — not by gating access, charging submissions, or selling veteran data.
Vietnam through post-9/11. Army, Navy, USMC, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, National Guard. Living veterans and family legacies equally welcome.
“The stories of the generation before us are still here — but only for a little longer.”
A Charter Founder is a person who helped establish the American Veteran Vault at America’s 250th Birthday — before it existed, before the archive launched, before history recorded that it would succeed. Their name is in the founding record. Permanently.
“In just a few words, how do you hope to make a difference?”
Answered at checkout. 250 Charter Members will be invited as inaugural Founding Members based on their answer and mission alignment.
