Can’t Keep Up
Many of the villagers were not dressed properly to assist the people during the war. They could barely follow the soldiers fast enough. Pictured is just one of many elderly women, she wore traditional Vietnamese clothing and didn’t have any shoes, meaning she couldn’t keep pace with the marching soldiers.

Homesick
Being stuck in a treacherous jungle for months was difficult for many soldiers based in Vietnam. With good reason, imagine being trapped in a place where you can barely breathe and so far away from your home. This could make any normal human being go crazy, or miss home to say the least. These soldiers did their best to make do with what they had, and unwind when they could, and even better when they had a package from home waiting for them.
