This collection contains postcards accessioned by the Mastics-Moriches-Shirley Community Library originally from the personal collection of Milton Price of Islip, N.Y.

Military Memories & Veterans' Voices was a program held at the Voorheesville Public Library on December 3rd, 2017. The program shared stories from local military personnel who had been interviewed by young people from the community as a way to learn and honor their service.

In the weeks prior to the program, students from Voorheesville Central School District and local Boy Scouts ranging in age from grades five through eleven interviewed twenty-six veterans and active service military members. The interviewees' age range spanned seven decades and their experiences stretched from those who fought on Iwo Jima to a current navigator in the Air Reserves flying research support missions to Antarctica. Through their conversations, the participants learned the stories of their neighbors and the living history around them.

The collection consists of video recordings of five of the interviews as well as a number of photographs provided to the Library by the interviewees.

For over twenty years, Dr. Curtis Hemenway led the Dudley Observatory in collecting and analyzing so-called “space dust,” usually under the funding the NASA or the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. From the mid-fifties to the mid-seventies, Dudley launched probes and balloons into the upper atmosphere in order to collect and examine the micro-meteorites to be found there. The documentation from this process is the strongest part of Dudley's modern collection.

The collection consists of files delineated by the various American wars. Within each file is an alphabetical listing of names and any discovered information on the rank, division of service, birth date, death date, and internment record for the veteran. Some information consists of enlistment records, troop ship records, newspaper clippings and recorded information on the cause of death.
