Steve Heller talks about his work in the Command Intelligence Center in Vietnam as the Intelligence Editor working on intelligence reports, and as the chief award writer, composing recommendations for different commendations. He describes writing intelligence reports for Henry Kissinger about the North Vietnamese. He speaks about his relationships with the South Vietnamese who worked with him, and about being stationed in Vietnam as US involvement in the war wound down. He talks about his disillusionment with the war, his dislike of peace activists and conscientious objectors, his ultimate opposition to war that was born out of his service, and the coverage of the war by the American media. He discusses the slowness of the Military postal service and the difficulty of communicating with this wife through the mail. The interview was conducted by the Mesa County Oral History Project, a collaboration of Mesa County Libraries and the Museums of Western Colorado.
