About this listen
In this chapter, Notch reflects on a significant event from September 1979. Sec and Walter, try to lift his spirits by inviting him to watch the film "Apocalypse Now" at the Ziegfeld Theatre. Notch, initially reluctant, agrees to go because of his admiration for Marlon Brando, who stars in the film. The movie brings back memories of the Vietnam War, and Notch shares his thoughts on the film's inaccuracies and its impact on him. He recalls his experiences with MACV-SOG soldiers and various operations he participated in during the war. He also observes the reactions of other veterans in the audience, noting their shared understanding and unspoken bond. The chapter ends with Notch reflecting on the film's portrayal of the war and its effect on him, as well as his enjoyment of people-watching during the movie.
