Mississippi veterans tell stories about war in Vietnam and what they faced returning home.

Mississippi veterans recall their service in Vietnam and their experience returning home to a supportive state but divided nation. One describes leading his platoon at night in the jungle. Another remembers a bloody mortar attack. A grisly early morning discovery brings another soldier to tears. Returning home to anti-war protests, they have been searching for peace ever since.
