  <abstract>The war was half a world away. But it nearly tore the United States apart. Over half a million U.S. soldiers were sent to fight in Vietnam. Vietnam was undergoing a long civil war. The North was fighting the South. Did Americans belong there? Lots of people had answers. But before you decide, consider what the people who were there had to say. They experienced the war up close and personal. Through their letters and memories, you will, too.".</abstract>
