Allen Brink, a United States Marine who was one of the early volunteers to go to Vietnam, talks about his experiences in the Vietnam War from 1965 to 1968. He expresses his disillusionment with the war, its purpose, and its methods. He speaks about his life after returning to the United States, his identification with veterans who protested the war (though he himself was not a protester), and his disagreement with protestors in the general public. The interview was conducted by the Mesa County Oral History Project, a collaboration of Mesa County Libraries and the Museums of Western Colorado.
