For Pope, the now 76-year-old pilot whose memory of Dien Bien Phu is seared by gruesome images of wounded French troops, the motivation for joining France's fight is easily explained. "I'm a communist fighter. I was born and raised to be against the communists," he says.

We lost?  the place was in pretty good shape when we left.   90% of the hamlets and villages were safe and secure.   We never lost a battle and killed the enemy like 10 to one.
