Reviews & Ratings
It shows how veterans returned in search of resolution, or peace, manifesting in shifting nostalgic visions of 'Vietnam. ' Different national war narratives shaped their returns: Australians followed the 'Anzac' pilgrimage tradition, whereas for Americans the return was an anti-war act.
Veterans met former enemies, visited battlefields, mourned friends, found new relationships, and addressed enduring legacies of war. Many found their memories of war eased by witnessing Việt Nam at peace.
Yet this peacetime reality also challenged veterans' wartime connection to Vietnamese spaces. The place they were nostalgic for was Vietnam, a space in war memory, not Việt Nam, the country.
Veterans drew from wartime narratives to negotiate this displacement, performing nostalgic practices to reclaim their sense of belonging. .
