Decades after the Vietnam War, U.S. soldiers are returning to the country but on a very different mission: to help their former adversaries find the burial sites of their missing comrades. Where they once "exchanged gunfire," now the vets "exchange handshakes and smiles," Al Jazeera said. Since 2022, teams have located the remains of about 600 people across eight mass graves. The race is on to make even more discoveries before memories fade and it becomes harder to find volunteers.

The hottest fashion accessory for adults is a knit hat that "could be described as a baby bonnet" for grown-ups, The New York Times said. The hats come in "various interpretations that range from girlie to monastic," with Pien Studios selling a popular fuzzy version for $210. Those who want to keep things budget-friendly can buy a pattern from PetiteKnit founder Mette Okkels, whose design is slouchier because she "thinks tightfitting bonnets look too similar to versions for babies."
