My name is Brad. I'm a 43 year old retired Green Beret in the U.S. Armed Forces. When you get sent off to fight, it's a pretty scary thing. You don't know what you're being subjected to. How the hell are you supposed to comprehend what may happen?This is my story. I was drafted in to Nam' when I was about 19 years old . Being drafted , God it was one of the scariest things that had ever happened to me. I had just been married two weeks in advance. So many thoughts raced through my brain. What will my wife say? I tried anything I possibly could to stay home. Nothing worked. When I was sent to the base, it was exceedingly confusing . But after a while, everything was finally sorted out. The barracks were cold. You could almost feel the moisture in the air. Then again, the stench of adrenaline and sound of heavy breathing was much worse . All the men, including I , we're beyond terrified. In the early hours of the morning, we'd all be shipped out to go fight in the jungles of Vietnam .

A Vietnam veteran finds that 43 years after the war, it's getting harder and harder to control his thoughts, his actions. His memory scarred by the horrible events that occurred in that jungle, what seemed like a century ago. His brain puts his conscience on autopilot, and carries him off to his own personal hell. The stress is getting to him more and more in his older state, like he's dying more and more every time he flashes back to that dense forest, and is feeding the memory that kills him with his decaying state. He's afraid to sleep, afraid of being alone, for fear that it will consume him completely. It sometimes feels that all the possible happiness has left him, that he can no longer create good memories, only amplify the terrifying ones.
