An Interpretive Report by John Kuenster, U.S. Catholic and Jubilee, October 1970

This article profiles a group of young men who were all from Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic parish in Chicago, Illinois. All were killed in action in Vietnam and Cambodia. The article is a poignant reminder that the burden of military service in Vietnam fell disproportionately on young men from poor and lower-middle class families and on minority communities.
