Tall of GI Attltud
He Interviewed many of our
soldier.
"1 asked the CI' how they
felt about the war," he said.
"Thev would generally an
swer, 'What do you mean?'
'Then I would av, 'Do you
think we should be here?' And
they nil told me the name thing,
'We've got to he here. We've
seen the atrocities perpetrated
by the Victcong. We've got to
make Congress realize they (the
South Vietnamese) can't be
overrun.' "
On t reels and rural road In
