The Vietnam War came to an end 50 years ago this spring. Washington State played a major role in the war, training hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and processing nearly a million before they went overseas. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon, the Washington State History Museum in Tacoma has put together an exhibit called “The Things They Brought Home: Memories of Washington’s Vietnam Veterans.” We talk with retired Army Lt. Col. Erik Flint, and military historian Megan Nishikawa, who curated the exhibit.
