    Summary

    Fandom: The West Wing
    Pairing: Jed Bartlet/Leo McGarry
    Rating: NC17 for loving m/m sex and for graphic scenes of torture and rape.
    Category: Slash.
    Summary: When Leo starts behaving strangely, Jed is left to unravel a sad story that has been untold for 30 years.
    Feedback: Yes please! The friendly variety is always welcome
    Author's Notes: This fic is set in my "June 17th" universe and events from that fic are referred to in this one, although it can easily be read as a standalone. Please note that it is slightly AU both from the real WW universe and the real world in terms of dates - US bombing raids in Vietnam had stopped in 1970 and Leo was in Vietnam a little earlier but those are the dates I started with in "June 17th" so I thought I'd continue with them.
    Dedications: Huge and heartfelt thanks to Phoebe for being the source of such amazing knowledge on Vietnam and for the usual in-depth beta.
    Thanks also to dot for support.
    Special thanks to Sergeeva for the striking title graphic.
    WARNING: This story features graphic scenes of torture and rape.
