On Vietnam
Ever since my involvement as an assistant editor on Friendship Village I've been interested in Vietnam. Looking at the raw footage allowed me to sites that I normally wouldn't see otherwise. From the beautiful Vietnamese plains to children whose heads were so deformed from the affects of Agent Orange that they couldn't even crawl. From soldiers being shot before my eyes to a group of old war enemies turned friend. I'll never forget the stories from the soldiers talking about their involvement in the "Amecian War", which they call it in Vietnam. These images and wordsn will never be removed from my brain and I'll always be grateful for my involvement with the documentary.

More recently I've learned about the Mai Lai Massacre, a military fuckup that resulted in the death and mutilation of 20 civilians, women and children alike that the government tried to cover up. More interstingly enough, I found that Colin Powell, the man who's building the case against Iraq was involved in the coverup. It sure makes me think that the government isn't telling us everything about Iraq, but that's not new, right?
