Never forget

I've been watching Ken Burns' excellent documentary about Vietnam. Brings back many memories. I keep scanning the faces of all the soldiers for someone I recognize, both wanting to see and not wanting to see any of the young men I knew who were there . Coincidentally, this film is airing while I'm going through my past writings with the goal of publishing a book of short stories and essays. At least two of the stories are about how Vietnam has never gone away.
