A Christmas Story From the Vietnam War - Talking Politics With Mom - Episode 06

from Talking Politics With Mom · host Talking Politics With Mom

A half century ago during Christmas time a young marine in Vietnam wrote to my mom. This complete stranger asked for her help in making Christmas a little brighter and less lonely for his company of marines. What happened next will make you believe in the goodness of the human heart. The acts of kindness that followed from that simple letter have rippled out across five decades like a beacon of light in the terrible darkness many of us feel. We hope you enjoy this story. In this divided nation - it's important to remember the power of asking for help when you need it and the lasting effect of small acts of kindness.
