Don Poss,

I enjoyed your "Christmas Star" article about Christmas at Da Nang. It is only appropriate that there should be at least one day of calm in a battle zone, just to let soldiers clear their minds and think of non-war-related things. It is also appropriate, some would say, to have this day come on the most religious day in the year: Christmas. I can only imagine "Silent Night" in the middle of a war area. The quieter, more meaningful side of war is always the most beautiful. Time out from killing, from blood, from mortars and M-16’s and Hueys, if only for a moment – it should be savored and remembered.

Hoping you are well.

-David
