Most of the stories will be of his experiences, but he will also include striking stories of others including the remarkable experiences of a friend who was a nurse in a Division base hospital treating sick Vietnamese and badly wounded American soldiers. Prof. Blatt will discuss the History office in MACV, in particular, relations between the Command and the Press.
