Telling the graphic story of a crippled veteran was admirably daring at the height of America's involvement with the war in Vietnam. The show also gave the First Edition a chance to do the comedy Kenny and Terry had long made a part of their act.

They continued on a few months after Vassy's death, but the circumstances were now too downbeat and they disbanded several months later.

    War, Women, Vietnam: the Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978

    War, Women, Vietnam: The Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: William J. Rorabaugh, Chair Susan Glenn Christoph Giebel Program Authorized to Offer Degree: History ©Copyright 2013 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn University of Washington Abstract War, Women, Vietnam: The Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn Chair of the Supervisory Committee: William J. Rorabaugh, History This dissertation proceeds with two profoundly interwoven goals in mind: mapping the experience of women in the Vietnam War and evaluating the ways that ideas about women and gender influenced the course of American involvement in Vietnam. I argue that between 1954 and 1978, ideas about women and femininity did crucial work in impelling, sustaining, and later restraining the American mission in Vietnam. This project evaluates literal images such as photographs, film and television footage as well as images evoked by texts in the form of news reports, magazine articles, and fiction, focusing specifically on images that reveal deeply gendered ways of seeing and representing the conflict for Americans. Some of the images I consider include a French nurse known as the Angel of Dien Bien Phu, refugees fleeing for southern Vietnam in 1954, the first lady of the Republic of Vietnam Madame Nhu, and female members of the National Liberation Front. Juxtaposing images of American women, I also focus on the figure of the housewife protesting American atrocities in Vietnam and the use of napalm, and images wrought by American women intellectuals that shifted focus away from the military and toward the larger social and psychological impact of the war.

Not only did it expose the limits of U.S. military power and destroy the consensus over post-World War II foreign policy, but it acted as a catalyst for enormous social, cultural and political upheavals that still resonate in American society today. This guide is intended as a bibliograhical tool for all those seeking an introduction to the vast literature that has been written on this subject. It covers the reasons behind American intervention in Vietnam, the role of Congress, the Executive and the media, the response of the American public, particularly students, to the escalation of the war, and the war’s legacy upon American politics, culture and foreign policy. It also addresses the experiences of those individuals affected directly by the war: Vietnam veterans and the Indochinese refugees.

It took a lot of courage for them to open their heart and souls and reveal their personal stories and relive horrifying memories of a war that they would rather leave behind in the abyss of their memories. By telling their stories, they have assisted in my endeavor to make known to the world the sacrifices of Pacific Islanders in the United States military. Here, the stories are about Pacific Islanders, more specifically Samoans in the Vietnam War. I thank each and every one of them. Their heartfelt cooperation exceeded my expectations. I also am grateful to Dr. Terence Wesley-Smith, the Director of the Center for Pacific Islands Studies at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa, and chair of the Center’s graduate program and members of the graduate committee for accepting me into their program.

Streeter NUMBER OF PAGES: ix, 298. ii Abstract Between 1964 and 1975, approximately 7,500 to 11,000 American military women served in the Vietnam War. They served in many roles – they worked as air traffic controllers, dieticians, physiotherapists, clerks, and cryptographers – but the bulk of American women who went to Vietnam served as military nurses with the Army, Navy, and Air Force Nurse Corps. This dissertation explores the wartime and homecoming experiences of female nurse veterans whose Vietnam experiences have been largely ignored or minimized by historical accounts of the war. By refashioning the narrative of the war to include women, this study challenges cultural constructions of war as an exclusively male sphere, and in doing so offers a more sophisticated understanding of both men’s and women’s Vietnam service. In Vietnam, American women risked their lives for their country.

Thank you to all my fellow master’s students who suffered along with me. A final thanks to a special friend who stuck through all my challenges and always made sure to make me laugh and supported me when I needed it most. 1 Abstract This thesis explores the experiences of military nurses and Red Cross Supplemental Recreational Activities Overseas (SRAO) volunteers, also known as “Donut Dollies,” who served in Vietnam. By examining both their working and personal lives demonstrate the many ways in which these women distracted themselves from the war. Escapism and the need for normality was a common feeling between these women and has gone unexplored. Historian Heather Marie Stur provides important insight into the roles of nurses and Donut Dollies through the lens of gender studies. The recently created Donut Dollie Detail website holds several fascinating interviews with Donut Dollies. Key memoirs from nurses are written by Lynda Van Devanter, Barbara Hesselman Kautz, and Lou Eisenbrandt.

The content of the series will be based on the core performance areas of the Institute which are: research, education and the communication of knowledge about human bodily training and performance within a military context. As such, “Moving Soldiers” is the military equivalent of the Norwegian School of Sport Sciences’ journal, “Moving Bodies,” which is dedicated to the communication of knowledge about sport and the bodily movement of humans. The series is meant to be a forum that reflects some of the activity going on at, and in connection with, the Defence Institute. Thus, over time, “Moving Soldiers” will present a variety of ongoing research and development projects, conference and symposium presentations, seminar and workshop reports and invited contributions from scholars and military personnel who have a connection to the Institute’s field of interest in different ways.

  • Vietnam POW Wives in American Literature

    Maureen Ryan Pentagon Princesses and Wayward Sisters Vietnam POW Wives in American Literature n the late-summer 1997 movie thriller, Conspiracy The- Iory, Jerry Fletcher, the apparently crazed taxi driver played by Me1 Gibson, festoons his armored apartment with newspaper clippings, photos, and assorted evidence of various widely-accepted conspiracies. Among Jerry's more conspicuously-displayed artifacts of late-twentieth- century paranoia are several bumper stickers (one prominently affixed to the refrigerator) admonishing us to "remember the POW/MIA." Jerry's eerie remonstra- tions about government plots are echoed more inno- cently in the still-current 32q US postage stamp (origi- nally issued in May 1995) that superimposes over a rip- pling American flag two dog-tags stamped with the words "POW & MIA-NEVER FORGOTTEN." And probably never to be forgotten, if America persists in its unwavering fascination with virtually every aspect of the Vietnam War, a war now more than twenty years in the past. It is now commonly accepted that our collective disappointment and shame over America's first military defeat left us as a nation uninter- ested in the Vietnam experience (and most of its partici- pants) in its immediate aftermath; but, as Susan Jeffords and others have demonstrated, the early 1980s brought us Ronald Reagan and John Rambo-and a "remascu- linized" USA now eager to revisit and reclaim what turned out to be one of the defining experiences of twen- tieth-century America. The continual stream of novels, memoirs, and revisionist interpretations of the war; the still-popular films, television shows, and video games; the haunting power of the Vietnam Veteransf Memorial in Washington, which is now the most-visited monument in our nation's capital (Niebuhr), all attest to our cul- ture's lingering absorption with its experience in Viet- nam.
