The Vietnam War unfolded in villages, cities, jungles and bases, involving forces from several nations.

It invites the viewer to imagine the position of an unseen target and the response of the surrounding troops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsider setting the piece in a Vietnam-era village, patrol route, firebase or jungle scene.
