Dear Billy Whisenant,

I am currently learning about the Vietnam War in History class. I am also reading the book The Things They Carried by Tim O`Brien in my English class. I really enjoyed reading your story Camouflage. I cannot believe that your Officer actually wanted you to Camouflage yourself when you had all that equipment on you. No matter what you do people are going to see you. I am surprised that your officer did not laugh when he saw you wrapped up in the leaf. It must have taken a lot of self control to not burst out laughing. There are not many war stories that actually make people laugh, so this one was a good change from the usual.
