Sam Walker pulls no punches as he tells about his experiences during the Vietnam War to college journalism student, Claire Cunningham. As Sam shares his unvarnished recollections and viewpoints, he begins to suspect that Claire’s thesis work isn’t her only reason for interviewing him. As the tale unfolds, the seventy-three-year-old veteran and the young woman discover they are both grappling with questions about the past, as well as loss, and loneliness, but together they hope to find answers that may help bring the closure that has eluded them.
