I'm having a very difficult time getting through the book. Reading, thinking and writing about it makes me ridiculously emotional - I guess its just the magnitude of betrayal where I've always had such trust and expectation. I told my husband I could see myself dedicating a lot of energy to this if there was anything I could do, so I'm with RL - if there is anything we can do to support the effort, I'd like to know about it too.

I share many of Shar's feelings - I'm having a helluva difficult time reading this.
I can remember when the first two soldiers from my home town were lost and memorial plaques were put up, with names added as we lost more.
But it was the stories that my former husband shared with me about his time in RVN in the 174th AHC out of Duc Pho (Sharks) that come back to the surface when reading.
And then to pick up this book...............
Thoughts of govt game playing, politics, personal ambition, betrayal..........it makes me sick.
