Eighteen American soldiers of Asian descent speak out about their experiences in three wars. Breaking a legacy of silence, they share laughter along with gut-wrenching experiences, such as that of Vietnam War Captain David Miyoshi, who was placed on a podium in front of his fellow soldiers and called a gook. The lesson was: “This is what the enemy looks like. Kill it before it kills you.”
