I gasped. Please let your grandfather know that his openly discussing his experiences is an incredibly important, and equally incredibly selfless thing to do. (My father was in Vietnam and he is, understandably, unable to discuss his experiences to this day. I understand how hard discussing the type of trauma most of us will never encounter is for a person.)

Do you still have faith in humanity after what you've been through?

It's a heavy question. Tell your grandfather I'm glad to hear it as it gives me hope. Blessings to you both.

What is one thing you'd like to see every person reading this AMA to do to better the world we live in?

Again, thank you. I am beyond thankful to have some wisdom from your grandfather and I hope it wasn't too hard on him to answer this many questions in such a short period.
