The Vietnam War unfolded in villages, cities, jungles and bases, involving forces from several nations. Patrols, communications, vehicles and local encounters offer many different ways to tell the story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEating \u0026amp; Drinking contributes a distinct named character, object or action to the range. Its individual role becomes most meaningful when the neighbouring pieces help explain what is happening in the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe subject adds an individual point of interest to its historical or fictional setting. A carefully placed character gives the viewer someone through whom to imagine the wider story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsider setting the piece in a Vietnam-era village, patrol route, firebase or jungle scene.
