It was the longest war in US history, but information was so scarce that schoolteachers we spoke to told us they had trouble explaining to their students what we were doing there, when those students had parents who were fighting and sometimes dying overseas.
Foi a guerra mais longa da história dos EUA, mas a informação era tão escassa, que os professores com quem conversámos, disseram-nos que tinham dificuldade em explicar aos alunos o que estávamos lá a fazer, quando esses alunos tinham pais que estavam a lutar, e às vezes a morrer no estrangeiro.
