Vietnam Days is the memoir of an American military intelligence officer's Vietnam War experiences before, during and after the Tet Offensive. William C. Thwing (Bill) tells you not only not only of all his military training leading up to Vietnam, and his experiences as a combat intelligence officer on Operation Fairfax with the 199th Inafntry Brigade but also about his experiences with the Vietnamese people many of whom he worked with daily and got to know intimately. Influenced by his studies of Japanese and Chinese poetry, Bill tells his story in the form of Haibun, Haiga and haiku. His respect and appreciation for the Vietnamese people and their simple way of life comes through clearly.
