I already talked about how Tim didn't really kill the one guy.
"...twenty years ago I watched a man die on a trail near the village of My Khe. I did not kill him. But I was present, you see, and my presence was guilt enough." - p. 171
Then he goes on to say that's not even true either, and here's the part where I'm just going to be talking in circles, I think. "I want you to know why story-truth is sometimes truer than happening-truth." - p. 171
I understand that; really I do. I sort of do, anyway. I feel like that sentence is itself a lie, but I have to believe it because that's what his entire moral seems to be. It doesn't matter, though; I want to know what really happened and what didn't. I don't like this feeling of being inundated with lies.
