David Entin served in Vietnam from 1966 to 1968. But NOT as a soldier. Instead, he worked for USAID (United States Agency for International Development) in the province of Quang Ngai where he had some of the most memorable, paradigm-shifting experiences of his life. He experienced both the beauty of the Vietnamese countryside and the horror of war from the vantage point of a helicopter. He witnessed the hypocrisy of the war on a personal level too as it played out in his workplace role after the Tet Offensive.
