My nephew is 10 years old. He was adopted from Viet-Nam at age 3. His parents have been very upfront with him about is heritage. In my opinion he will not remember any of his former life in the orphanage. Most of his classmates think he is Hispanic.

I told his folks I want to help if it becomes a problem when they study Viet Nam in school, but I don't know if they even teach that war. I recall only a few days on Korea and less than a week on World Wars1 and 2. Of course that was the late 60's and early 70's.

I am not sure what to tell the lad, maybe how it was on the news and how unpopular it became through the years.
