Subject: war stories

In regards to James Murtaugh,
I have now read the story Once More, Before I Die. I would like to start by saying that I’m happy that someone could attempt a positive outlook on such a lifetime altering event. I’m not saying that it is justifying the Vietnam War, but turning Vietnam into a place of peace and not hate. I know I’m being vague, but you see, the thing is that we are discussing Vietnam in my class and I am responding to war stories I have read. I would like to continue in saying that it is great that someone could go back. I’m not sure everyone could do that. My father fought in Vietnam, and though I have never asked him, I am almost positive that he would not want to go back. It is just not something my dad could probably do because of his view of Vietnam through past eyes. I think that it is great, that someone has basically “corrected” the past by trying to see things in a different way. I am happy for this attempt at making peace.
