Hue war vivid in city life amid wreckage and rescue

A vivid field report from Hue surveys a city scarred by Tet offensive yet bustling with families at parks, shops, and tennis matches. The piece contrasts destruction with resilience, noting damaged walls, rebuilt structures, and locals continuing outings, schooling, and fishing as Vietnamese and Australian observers reflect on war’s human toll and values.
