This book f**ked me up. I don't cry in books often, maybe I get a chin quiver here or there, but this one had me sobbing twice and a couple of watery eyed honorable mentions. My heart was broken in the best way.

I didn't know much about the Vietnam War (still not talked about, I guess) and this was really an educational book as much as anything else. Shame on us. Shame on U.S.

Okay, I'm going to need to read some fluff now to recover.
