Oral histories are priceless; if you have a way of recording or documenting them I think it's worth the hassle. I've been to a couple of unit reunions and they were both a lot of fun - especially since I was so much younger than the vets, because they all wanted to tell the "kid" something. Not that they were fishing for appreciation, but were just glad to see someone from a younger generation interested in their experiences.
So, in short, go to the reunion!
