The Vietnam war was a conflict so violent, so bizarre that it left a whole generatino of young Americans too shocked and scarred to understand the nightmare they had been through. Only now, more than twenty years after the conflict began, are the Vietnam veterans beginning to talk about an experience America had wanted them to forget. NAM draws on teh memories of these men, telling the full story of America's Vietnam war.
