Young individuals went to war in Vietnam as kids, lost their youthful dreams, and in some cases their lives, for the cause of freedom and honor. Those who returned came back as men with the horrors of war instilled in every fiber of their being and were never given the respect and honor they deserved from the public or the United States government. God is presented as having been with each of them in Vietnam, as the only one who truly knows what they went through and what they live with every day, and as one who will judge human actions while continuing to shine on each veteran's life now and forevermore. For those who fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected will never know.
