Informations supplémentaires

One week after the September 11th attacks in New York and in Washington DC, two ex-US Ranger veterans visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Constitution Gardens, Washington DC. One helps another to climb up to trace the imprint of their dead friend's name, mentioned with 58, 195 other recorded casualties on its polished wall. The average age of those men was 19 in the sixties and seventies. The nation was mourning those killed in the New York and Washington attacks, and the military was about to mobilise once again with many American lives lost. The Vietnam war however, remains a low-point in the nation's history and the old men who survived return to 'find' their buddies which helps them deal with the traumatic loss of their friends and their own youth.
