The site of Yangmingshan, Taipei, is where many US soldiers shared their memories of the 70’s Cold War Era. Far away from home, these people temporarily resided in this place; none of them knew if they could get back home again. This place was their only shelter, physically and mentally. It was a place for people who missed their distant families to meet and chat as a cure to their homesickness.
