Emotions of War: Parallels Between "The Things They Carried" and the real Vietnam
War is like fog, it moves to and fro, it comes as a slow moving loom and leaves like a flash; as it dissipates it leaves behind dampness. If the fog is war then the dampness is the emotions; that is the residual affects of war. The emotions are things that stick to everyone "In war, there are no unwounded soldiers (Narosky)".
