American Veteran: Keep It Close is a docuseries from PBS that tells the stories of veterans and the special objects they carried during deployment and beyond. These objects, ranging from a puppy to a vial of lip gloss, have provided everyday comfort and hope to the veterans — and offer civilians a window into the veteran experience. Although the stories are unique to the individual veterans and their military service, the concept of mementos and the emotions they can generate are universal. The American Veteran: Keep it Close digital series is on PBS’ Voices YouTube channel. Learn more at the series website
