In this episode of Dearest Suzie, we explore a letter where Popi reflects on his first experience as an instructor pilot and his anticipation of reaching the halfway point in his tour. As he trains new pilots by day and prepares for troop lift missions by night, we get a glimpse of his dedication and quiet humility.
Accompanied by a photo of a soldier standing in front of wooden barracks, today’s episode provides a grounded look at the daily realities of life in Vietnam—homes away from home for so many soldiers.

- Popi’s new role as an instructor pilot and what it reveals about his character.
- Reflections on teaching, humility, and shared inheritances.
- A personal glimpse into the living conditions of soldiers in Vietnam.
