April 28, 1971— Traveling to Vietnam

On April 28, 1971, my father, Richard Allgood, began his journey from Texas to Vietnam. He said goodbye to my mother, Sarah, not yet knowing that she was pregnant with me — news that would arrive a month later in a letter that would change everything.
Today, we pause to honor the courage it took to leave home and step into the unknown. Tomorrow, the first letter will be written— and the story truly begins.
Thank you for listening to Allgoods: Vietnam Through the Eyes of Love.
These letters capture a love story separated by war, but never by heart.
