In 1968, I was an Infantry Paratrooper with the 173d Airborne Brigade, Landing Zone English, located in Bong Son, Province of Binh Dinh, Republic of Vietnam. When I came home from Southeast Asia in 1969, much of what I saw and experienced was shut out from my memory. But, some things you can never forget.

My Mother
During my mother's last days she recalled how her homeland and family had suffered through the Russian Revolution, famine where millions died, communism under Stalin where millions more disappeared, the horrors of World War II, and then a life in exile. In her final days my mother cried out asking why God had brought her so much suffering. This is her story.
