He expressed his hope that the visit would help the US delegation learn about the social and economic situation in Vietnam, as well as the country's external and internal policies.
Herrgott and other members of the delegation, who are in Vietnam from April 3-12, expressed their wish to look at the efforts being made by American veterans in Vietnam to heal the scars of war, and the search for those who went missing during that time.
