About Slow Boat to Vietnam

Hi, I'm Silvia, I'm an exchange student from Italy in New Hampshire. Our American Studies teacher gave us this assignent: to find 5 Vietnam Veterans' stories and comment them. At first I was scared, I was worried about not succeeding in this assignment, because to be honest...I don't know anything about Vietnam. It wasn't my country's war, it's true, but I still wish someone told me what happened, the protests, the blaming...But then, reading several stories, I noticed that every single one of them was written for a purpose:let people know the truth...people like me, the new generations, to let us grow up a little bit while reading. Thank you
Silvia
