And my book, this time we win. A question i frequently get is where did you get this title, this time we win . Actually, it came from vietnam veterans. I would talk to them about what i was doing and say im writing a book on the tet offensive, and many times they would say, do we win this time . Hence the title, this time we win. It goes along with the other old cliche that you hear from the vets, that we were winning when i left, they say. So, yeah, part of the reason i wrote the book was to try to get the truth out about what happened in vietnam, and to honor the men and women who won that war for us, before the politicians threw it away. You frequently see tet in the headlines these days. Wherever anything bad happens in the world, terrorists do some kind of attack, insurgents have some kind of spectacular bombing or something, youll see a pundit or a commentator say, this is just like the tet offensive. Iraq, afghanistan, wherever. I saw a headline about tet referring to northern m
In nebraska, they had a great presence in nebraska. And other groups moved through the plains or occupied portions of the plains out west, say, the cheyenne for example. The groups moving down say from the dakotas. We also had along the Missouri River the missourian, the winnebago, the omaha, and the ponca. I would venture to guess we had 300,000, 400,000 objects. Many of the great plains items were as i mentioned collected after the civil war when euroamericans came out to the great plains. If they were surveying for railroads, if they were establishing missions, even in terms of military, they would collect various items of material culture. We have those in our gallery. As well as about 98 of our collections are housed elsewhere. In a museum, you typically dont see more then 2 3 of the collections that are on public display. In the planning for the gallery, we work collaboratively with the number of native americans. This is important because historically we see a lot of times museu
My choice was to get as close to the action in vietnam as i possibly could. I was writing features about kids from fort worth. It is the single most rewarding thing i ever did in all my years in journalism because this would brighten up their day that someone from their hometown would look them up. My best pictures were not on the periphery of the fighting but were woven through it. The kind of pictures i took showed people waiting for something to happen. I basically tried to block out the emotional side of it in the early years, because i really believe that the journalism of detachment was what war coverage was all about. I was very jingoistic when i got there in the beginning. When i got back, i was convinced the war, whatever our good intentions, simply could not be won. Part of the reason i have always done it is a sense of wanting to be where the action is. In the bigger theater, we cast a light in dark corners around the world that you would not see without photographers. So, t
