With phrases like "precision bombing." "smart bombs." "electronic warfare." among others. even a B52 raid at 36.000 feet dropping 30 tons of bombs each. almost seems clean and neat. Bombing has* become a remote way for us to fight a war for which we are unwilling to die. But the bombing has never been remote to the peoples of Indochinaas the statistics on refugees and civilian war victims tell us. So as we look back and attempt in the future to learn some of the tragic lessons of Vietnam. we must never let bombing become remote. In an outstanding series recently published by the Washington Post. bombing is all too real.
