The Allgoods: Vietnam Through the Eyes of Love
In 1971, two young Air Force veterans — Richard and Sarah Allgood — found themselves separated by the Vietnam War, yet connected through hundreds of heartfelt letters.
Decades later, after their passing, their daughter discovered a preserved box of their correspondence: a story of love, family, courage, and hope written one letter at a time.
The Allgoods: Vietnam Through the Eyes of Love shares these personal letters, weaving a timeless narrative of war, separation, and enduring devotion. Join us as we honor their legacy and explore how even in the hardest times, love finds a way.

The Allgoods: Vietnam Through the Eyes of Love
January 1, 1972: Happy New Year, Under the Shitty Circumstances
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
January 1, 1972 arrives without celebration. From opposite sides of the world, Sarah and Dick begin a new year marked by war, late pregnancy, exhaustion, football losses that sting too deeply to write down, and the quiet certainty that they are almost there. These two letters open 1972 the same way 1971 ended — with honesty, endurance, and love written down
