Message from Nam

How do you tell someone what it's like to kill a man hand to hand, run a bayonet through his guts, or shoot a sniper in the face who turns out to be a woman? Or about the sunsets on the mountains or the green of Viet Nam, or the sounds and the smells, and the people, and the girl who can't even say your name, but you know you love her.

Cum ii spui cuiva ce inseamna sa ucizi un om corp la corp, sa-i tragi o baioneta prin maruntaie sau sa impusti un lunetist in fata care se dovedeste a fi femeie? Sau despre apusurile de soare pe munti sau despre verdele din Vietnam, despre sunete si mirosuri, despre oameni si despre fata care nici macar nu-ti poate spune numele, dar stii ca o iubesti.
