The hauntingly gorgeous and long-suffering Mrs. Pimp and her family have some pretty solid "atrocity" stories. They can tell you how the Viet Cong did targeted assassinations in their village for years and how grateful they were to Americans who offered even nominal protection. And how they would single out men for public execution and torture them in front of their families. And they can tell you about how when the Americans left that void was filled by an infinitely worse entity that systematically slaughtered and imprisoned in reeducation camps everyone who offended them. They can tell you about the day they came for their family, and how they took the family home and business along with all their possessions. And how a few years later The Khmer Rouge came across the border to her city and slaughtered thousands more for good measure. And about how they crossed the Sea of Thailand in a leaky boat and lived in a tent in Malaysia for a year.
It's not a story that many young people know. Everybody knows about My Lai and about how horrible America is/was. They don't know much about the millions murdered in SE Asia after we left for some reason.
I have no illusions about the VC and the horrors they inflicted on the civilian population. I'm happy that your wife and her family survived and that she found happiness with a true gentleman like yourself.
