Once more, with feeling

Edited 2/18: We’ve just launched a permanent veterans affairs blog, “At Ease!” Click here to visit it.

I wanted to wrap up this blog with one last slideshow, more or less summarizing our father-daughter, veteran-journalist return to Vietnam last month.

I’d like to keep covering military and veterans issues, so keep an eye on LoHud.com next year for a permanent blog. In the meantime, Return to Vietnam will remain online, so you can keep posting comments or sending in suggestions for future coverage. Readers can also revisit The Journal News editorial and six stories about our journey by clicking on the headlines listed under the Links menu on the right-hand side of this screen as you scroll down through the previous entries.

Thanks for following along.
