            benefit on their political business. The bloody and deadly game came
            from  the  ambition  of  the  politicians  on  both  side,  and  the  blood
            soldiers were used to be the tool for them playing the war game...!
                Both side American and North Vietnam have fallen deep into the
            financial  crisis;  a  heavy  lot  of  soldiers  lives  by  the  new  modern
            weapons.  The  air  strike  offensive  weapons  could  kill  a  thousand
            people with one bomb that drop onto the target and make the earth-
            shaking  about  a  mile  with  its  exploding  pressure,  the  defensive
            weapons would make the explosive shell wall to broke the aircraft by
            a part, or burning and dropping in the air like the flying stars at night.
            The leaders on both sides were playing the weapon racing game with
            no attention to the regard of the public. The crisis is fearing of the
            dead, the extreme loudly cries of the victims of war were covered by
            the detonation as the thunder of both side weapons that echoed in
            the  air,  spreading  blood  on  the  ground,  destroyed  any  things  and
            made the earth surface like the large beehive with the big holes.
                The leaders and the dishonest political seller didn't pay attention
            to  the  soldiers'  wife  and  children.  Love  made  them  living  in  the
            sorrow of fearing and tearful on their eyes at any time. They write
            the letter or record their voice and send to their husbands or their
            father on the front line to keep in touch. But some pilot or North
            soldiers get the letter at the same time as their mission air strike or
            heard the radar air alarm warning of war on the North side. After 10
            minutes of fighting, they were exploded in the air by the SAMs or die
            on the ground by the bomb and don't have time to open the love
            mail. The mails burned with the pilot bodies at the same time aircraft
            exploding and fly in the air or bathe of bloody in the breast-pocket of
            the ground soldiers.
                Some pilot just heard their parent, wife, and children voices of
            the half tape recorder. They hurried to turn off the cassette, took the
            tapes putting in their breast-pockets with their love and walking into
            the  meeting  room  to  follow  the  overall  briefing.  They  were  quiet
            take  the  fill  water  bottles  stuffing  into  pockets,  loaded  into  their
            shoulder  holsters  the  .38  caliber  pistols,  grabbed  their  parachutes,
            jumped into the fight line van, headed for their aircraft. They stared
