Now interested in comparing the experiences of World War II veterans and Vietnam War veterans, Veden has compiled a second volume of interviews focused on veterans of the Vietnam War.

Veden spent three years serving in the United States Army, later spending the majority of his career working for a Fortune 500 energy company.
