Has there ever been a tv production about heroes of the Vietnam war? How would people feel about acts of extreme sacrifice and bravery just as the war was ending? Would you want your kid sticking his neck out to kill a few more Viet Cong as the war is winding down in its final hours or would that seem illadvised or perhpas insane even if the individual act were extremely selfless and heroic?
Is heroism and self sacrifice really something to be celebrated in a vacuum?
Not saying much heroism and sacrifice isn’t worth it. just worth thiking about what we put it all on the line for.
