Character Bio

Ending the Vietnam War was the second best thing Richard Nixon ever did for his country. It also made sense to order air support for the struggling South as America withdrew.

John Smith actually loved the Vietnamese girl and their infant daughter. He came to save them. He didn't know about the mutagenic interaction of LSD and Agent Orange in the womb.  Nor was it his fault he got shot.

The NVA soldiers were fighting for their country. They knew victory was near; no need to harm this woman and child. Leading them to safety, they didn't realize they'd been spotted from the air.

The huge BLU-82 Daisycutter bomb could only be carried by a cargo plane -- the sort that should be used to evacuate people instead. Nor could it be left behind for the enemy. It HAD to be used.

And so a series of good decisions, taken for sound reasons, ended in this blackened clearing, a baby lying unharmed in its center.

Even though it was nobody's fault, she began to cry.
