Tet Offensive: Battle for HueVietnam | 3 comments | Print This Post | Email This Post
The period of January 31 to February 25, 1968, left a lasting impression on me. I was witness to man’s inhumanity to man in some of the fiercest fighting during the Vietnam War.

The first paragraph is not correct. I ran back to the hooch to change. I did not run back to the bunker, because that is where I was for the intial attack. PLEASE correct this …
I had sent in a written request to correct this passage a few weeks ago and it has not been done.
Thank you for your help..I know that VIETNAM Magazine likes to get things correct!
