Uncovering the real story in Iraq is getting harder.  Western journalists have become targets, just like American soldiers.  And reporters now take elaborate precautions to avoid being killed or kidnaped.  In this hour of To the Best of Our Knowledge we'll talk about the hazards of war reporting with George Packer, a staff writer for The New Yorker.  We'll also go back to Vietnam and hear about one woman's effort to understand her father, who was a “tunnel rat” during the war.
