Here is a glimpse of my story:
My name is Tracy Smith Himes and my brother served in Vietnam in the 1st Air Cavalry, 1966-1969 (A/2/20th). I recently spoke at a 50th War Commemorative Event and the response was very positive. Veterans in attendance heard my brother’s story and felt an alliance with the thought provoking – but simple – words of this teenage soldier growing up at war as a door gunner. My brother’s raw truths are revealed in his 99 letters written home to our parents that I plan to publish. The speaking engagement resulted in several keynote invitations to speak to DAR groups and Quilts of Valor annual Veterans Celebration this Fall.
My brother’s letters unveiled a hero I never knew, and in researching the details of the battles he endured, I discovered my brother’s voice and valor. The process of discussing the truth of what happens in a chaotic war zone – and other hard topics many people, not just soldier’s, encounter from traumatic situations – starts the healing process and offers hope. I’ve seen many of the people who have heard the story and read the letters feel empathy, immediately open up and begin to voice their own stories, some for the first time. You can see the healing in their eyes with every story.
Although a couple of raw topics are quoted, it’s designed to be an inspiring message, sprinkled with funny war stories and a call to action to find and share their voices.
There is a story in every soldier that needs to be voiced. Recorded for history, for legacy, for truth. We want our children and grandchildren to see our old pictures, watch the few remaining audio or video recordings, read the letters and hear first-hand of the memories that remain in the few Vietnam Veterans willing to talk. Future generations need to be educated by us, their loved ones, on what it takes to have a free society, the true and brutal price of war and the honor that comes with Military sacrifice and service.
Bottom Line: There is healing in revealing and freedom in truth. Let Freedom Ring!
