-U.S. troops turned to popular music as a way of coping with the war in Vietnam. In this sound-rich show, the authors of “We Gotta Get Out of this Place”, Doug Bradley and Craig Werner, play songs the soldiers listened from that era and explore how that music became the soundtrack of the war.
And: In the first episode of With Good Reason’s new documentary series on the Vietnam War, historians and veterans of the war explore the story of the draft — who it ensnared, who escaped, and the trauma it left on a generation of Americans.
Plus: Before the Korean War, the bodies of American soldiers killed in conflicts abroad were buried in overseas cemeteries. But the nature of the conflict in Korea changed that. One historian says the Korean War brought about other changes, too, including the development of forensic anthropology.
