Article Evaluation -- The Things They Carried

I believe that this article of the story, "The Things They Carried", was poorly written. First off, I believe that there should have been more background information on what was the time period and what exactly was the Vietnam War. Also, since the book is a collection of short stories, it is difficult to find more information on each individual story. The article did not express that much information on the stories and gave only a brief summary for each one. If an individual were to try to find more background on these stories, they would not be able to find them on wikipedia. Lastly, for the theme section of the article, it did not express a theme for each story. It basically just selected one of the stories and explained it.
