Vietnam War Reflection

Vietnam War Project Reflection The knowledge I acquired the most was how quickly the veterans perished in war, the assumptions I made my whole life were that most veterans at least served a year in war. This assignment, unfortunately, or fortunately did not alter the manner I viewed veterans, because we never learned about the veterans personality, rather just their basic life details. As I read upon the information of a veteran named Billy Kennedy Evans, Jr., a shocking element came into sight. His death was due to going missing after a helicopter crash, the creepiest bit is that his dead body was never found. Of all the veterans I grasped the fundamental information on, all veterans seemed to have one thing in common: How instant their deaths
were, their serving time ranged from one month to a year. The one, general thing I take away from this project is how absolutely charmed families are if their veteran returns home, especially in good condition. War is no simple task, it is a matter of life or death, and veterans come much closer to death.
