Photo of Girl in Vietnam Napalm Bombing Brings Back Memories

Over meatloaf and mashed potatoes, we watched news reels on television. As callous as only a child can be, I got used to seeing the graphic images. In fact, it used to annoy me when war updates interrupted "Tom and Jerry." Then a picture appeared that pierced my happy-normal life. Photo of Girl in Vietnam Napalm Bombing Brings Back Memories
