The War Bride

Stephen Spencer has never told anyone this before. During the Vietnam war, he fell in love with a Vietnamese local, and would ultimately cross enemy lines and get shot to try and be with her. Since production of this episode, Stephen has written a book about this experience, entitled The Great Goodbye. The book is available at the following links on Amazon, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble: https://www.amazon.com/Great-Goodbye-Stephen-J-Spencer/dp/B0CV8STWJ1/ref=sr_1_1?crid=35K08RWEF9L8G&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.koFbbWKxynr-7Mh8bCJvEc9AtWLOayW2lCygrz44JGqftQmW4qdeuAR2U68K2Dkxqytn2jOMPWqsSAp3aBke94crA4KVYaTpgobIIFH7C3Z-Xhesx_Znp3M37iFGrw413ufTRCIk4C5gGMUxsQNR3s1rp7Dl4YH_tfgRIbWuzfa-l3iyYz6YBGOEOvydFLj9nlUWbPlS4KUmbGz5MZ_-jkXhh5DRV0UwAT1iSpZqCoE.MGlSrR3GCl7w2x8WbGLcnm7bCrtv1-OHtaRvJL-D5W4&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+great+goodbye+stephen+spencer&qid=1709072315&sprefix=the+great+goodbye%2Caps%2C126&sr=8-1 https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-great-goodbye/id6478176171 https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-great-goodbye-stephen-j-spencer/1144846819;jsessionid=B1D85E70A185118657F34E34C32EFA09.prodny_store01-atgap07?ean=9798890618429 True War Stories: Mission Report is a production of Voyage Media.
