In this episode of Dearest Suzie, we explore a night fraught with tension, as Bill Lowie’s diary entry from November 16 recounts an evening on high alert for a possible Viet Cong attack amidst a typhoon warning. The haunting atmosphere of that night, made worse by memories of the Bien Hoa incident, left Popi and his comrades sleepless and on edge. This entry reveals how these experiences rippled through his life, later influencing family dynamics in small but lasting ways.
Accompanied by a photograph of Hueys conducting a night training mission under flares and tracer rounds, today’s episode contemplates how the echoes of war shape lives far beyond the battlefield.
What’s Covered:
- Details of the November 16 entry, capturing a sleepless night under typhoon and attack warnings
- Reflections on Popi’s post-war routines, including separate bedrooms due to nightmares
- Insights into how war experiences can shape family dynamics across generations
📷 Featured Photo: A nighttime image of Huey helicopters training under flares and tracer rounds, representing the eerie, tense atmosphere surrounding Popi’s night.
