A Matter of Conscience: GI Resistance During the Vietnam War - Episode 3: Misunderstandings, Lies and Whiskey

Hi friend,

Starting tomorrow Wednesday, May 28 you can listen to Podcast Episode 3: Misunderstandings, Lies and Whiskey!

This is a helpful episode if you don’t know much about the history of the Vietnam War, or a good refresher if you do. Historian Chris Appy highlights Vietnam's two-thousand-year struggle for independence, the U.S. involvement in the country, the role of international and American politics, and some of the major milestones of the war: the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the My Lai massacre, and Vietnamization.

Hosts Bill Short and Willa Seidenberg will also bring you stories about their work in Vietnam and we’ll hear from the Army photographer who took photos of the My Lai massacre, and hear from the former editor of Vietnam News.
