Farmer Nguyen, Massacre at My Lai, and a Nun at Ninh Hoa

The war had a huge impact on the native Vietnamese. Many innocent civilians were killed, and many were harmed by both sides like Farmer Nguyen. The VC made him give them rice, and the US made hurt him. The Massacre at My Lai was a big example of the senseless killing of Native Vietnamese. Completely innocent people were killed for no reason. It obviously drove the Natives crazy, like in the Nun at Ninh Hoa, it was enough to make someone commit suicide. Many of their cities were fought over by the two sides which would definetely have an effect on the Natives. Put in simplest form, the Native's home was a war zone.
