I appreciate the photos provided on this page. I teach a one semester high school course on the conflict. I spend quite a bit of time having students learn about the rich culture, literature, and history of the country. As a Viet-Nam veteran, I have the philosophy that it is up to us to share our experiences with the next generation so they can develop a critical mind when leaders decide to embark on a war footing rather than seek social justice and self-determination. Thanks for the glimpse into Vietnamese life. Peace.
