The Vietnam War devastated not only a country, but also millions of lives—both in Vietnam and in the U.S. In the 50 years since the war ended, some U.S. veterans who were sent as young GIs to fight a distant war have returned to Vietnam—not as soldiers, but as men seeking peace. They come to retrace their steps on battlefields, in tunnels, and through villages where they lost friends, their youth, and, in many ways, themselves. Among them are those who have connected with Vietnamese victims still suffering, like them, from wounds inflicted by Agent Orange.
