Twenty days until Dick leaves Vietnam.
The final month begins.
Sarah writes from home with baby Cissie — doctor visits, sunshine, baby clothes, errands, and the daily work of caring for a child alone. Dick writes from Vietnam, trying to place a phone call, making plans for the move ahead, and counting every remaining day.
For a father who has not yet held his daughter, twenty days is both a lifetime and almost no time at all.

The Allgoods: Vietnam Through the Eyes of Love is a personal podcast project based on real letters exchanged between Capt. Richard Allgood and Capt. Sarah Allgood during the Vietnam War. Photos of the original letters, family snapshots, and behind-the-scenes commentary are available for supporters.
