On July 24, 1971, Dick Allgood writes to his wife Sarah after spending his day off handling an assignment from his superiors. A local Vietnamese woman who worked in the hooch was flagged by the police for having an expired ID pass, and Dick was ordered to escort her through the renewal process. Between the Buddhist calendar, a language barrier, and a closed hospital, it turns into a headache — one he can’t finish himself. But what’s most striking is what never changes: his loyalty, his humor, and his love for Sarah.
