Homework due 5/24

Farmer Nguyen
Massacre at My Lai
A Nun at Ninh Hoa

What do these two poems and the article say about the impact of the war on the native Vietnamese? Can you think of any other ways in which the war will impact the native Vietnamese?
The readings show that times in war were not only hard for the troops that faught, but for the men, women, and children who live and sleep in fear. They have no idea what's going around, or when the fighting could come to their village. Innocent lives are lost for no reason. These civilians also might not ever see their husbands, dads, or brothers ever again. It was hard times for the innocent native Vietnamese.
