Hearts, Minds, and Coffee

Anti-War Soldiers Wage Peace with a Vietcong Village

The U.S. Army didn't like Slater Marshall's opposition to the Vietnam War, so it assigned him and three other dissidents to Viet Cong territory as a recon unit — expecting them to be killed. To survive, Slater followed his own rules and waged peace with the village of Phan Lac, the scene of the deaths of the previous recon unit. Little did he know he'd have to contend with the Viet Cong, and later a large North Vietnamese Army unit.
