video links

As I'm doing work on Boxler and looking at vids about PTSD, I'm also considering other things we (as a nation, not we as a class) remember about the Vietnam War. That took me to thinking about Kim Phuc, the girl in the famous picture regarding napalm attacks, which led to this video. Just something for TA 525 to think about; esp. given the Viewpoints work we've done in class regarding images.

One last one, not related to PTSD necessarily, but still regarding how a veteran copes with the after effects of war:
