Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam

Directed by Bill Couturié
Addressed to the heart of America.

Real-life letters written by American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines during the Vietnam War to their families and friends back home. Archive footage of the war and news coverage thereof augment the first-person "narrative" by men and women who were in the war, some of whom did not survive it.
