Author Donald Langmead guides readers through Lin's ancestry and family connections in precommunist China; her childhood and youth in Athens, Ohio; the story behind the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC; her career after 1982 (by decades); and emphasis on environmental conservation.

Vietnam Memorial Wall (DC) Defaced Sept 7-8, 2007: Part 1

Sometime during the overnight hours on September 7-8, 2007, a Deranged Moonbat, identity unknown, defaced numerous panels along the entire length of the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington, DC., with some unknown oily substance. This attack happened a week in advance of the Gathering of Eagles III, a patriotic counterpoint to the leftist "peace" riot planned for September 15, 2007. According to a National Park Service spokesman, the damage appears to be permanent.
