Today we had a guest speaker come and talk to our class about his experiences in the Vietnam War, who happens to be my dad, Dave Alvarez. He was drafted into the war in 1965, and served as Military Police and a helicopter gunner for the Air Force from 1967-1969. He brought in several pictures that he took while he was there and recounted many stories about the land of Vietnam, his travels, training, combat experiences, and also answered many of your questions. I was very impressed by some of the great questions that many of you asked! For homework, please consult your calendar and finish the reading assignment for the weekend. Also, please download the discussion questions for "Sweetheart of the Song Tra Bong" and answer them on a separate sheet of paper. We will be going over the reading from the last few days on Monday. Have a great weekend!
