I'm a protest veteran. Ask away! :)

Mr Puma

Best way to get the answers to your questions is look in the phone book for the VFW, DAV, American Legion, or Vietnam Veterans of America. Go to which ever post you pick and ASK if someone will help you with your assignment. See if mom or dad will make a contribution to them.

Here's a couple of sites that have facts and figures about the Vietnam War.
