Col. Bob Fischer knew that a war in Southeast Asia would be fought unlike previous wars.

Fischer on the book Echoes of Our War: Vietnam Veterans Reflect Fifty Years Later, in which nine Vietnam Marine veterans and one Navy corpsman share their stories. Marine veteran Paula Sarlls explains how you can help honor these men.
