Zachary Clouse is a senior communications student at Siena College (Loudonville, NY) with a passion for telling stories. He grew up fascinated with history, particularly military history of the Second World War, and was fortunate enough to have family serve and survive. It's his family that have fueled his passion; having missed the opportunity to ask WWII vet family members of their service, Zach looks to capture and preserve those veteran stories that he can before the "Greatest Generation" is all gone. As such, he's produced "Herrmann," a piece on a local service-member whose photo was published in newspapers across the country during WWII, and is currently working on a long-running documentary project called "Bridged With Blood" about the role of US Army Combat Engineers during WWII.
