"Why Veterans March Against the War" by Jan Barry, The New York Times, April 23, 1971
This article explains why many Vietnam veterans protested the war in 1971, saying they were tired of false promises and wanted the fighting to end immediately. The veterans described how their generation was forced to fight in a war filled with violence, destruction, and moral contradictions, which left many feeling guilty or disillusioned.
