ABSTRACT

The suffering never ends for Du Ngoc Anh, who lives with the memory of the napalming of her village as if it had happened yesterday. "My two little sons were killed on the spot," says Du, now 54. "My baby daughter died three months later in a hospital." Almost ritualistically, Du displays the napalm wounds she suffered as she fled the attack that morning of June 8, 1972. "In the cold weather my legs still ache," she says, showing the scarred, twisted flesh on her arms and legs. "It never goes away."
