How is it that a tour of a VietNam battlefield can provide perspective. IOW yes it's a jungle here as in everywhere. But many battlefields, such a Khe San are now so overgrown as to not be recongnizable sometimes even by the Marines who suffered there. What is it in these Nam battlefields that makes them so informative?
