1 if preferred.
Prepare
a list of open-ended questions that you can use during your interview.
Use these websites to view examples and tips about the types of
questions usually asked during an oral history interview. NOTE:
These sites may not have any questions that relate directly to World
War II, but can be used as a model for the types of questions that
you make on your own:
