Description

This is the true story of two brothers-in-law who traveled to the Central Highlands of Vietnam where one of them was stationed during the Vietnam War. For Jim, an anti-war guy, this was just another funky place he'd have to talk about. For Nick, a West Point soldier and Special Forces ranger, who really believed in the war, this was a trip to his past, a place he'd never spoken about. The author never intended to write about the trip, but something happened to them during one day of their trip that rocked him deeply. This story is about that one day in April 1996, a day Jim and Nick spent together in a small village in the Central Highlands.
