Both poems convey the same haunting sorrow and guilt from wartime experience. In “Ambush” the narrator is tormented by the memory of killing a young man and can’t tell his daughter the whole truth; in “Facing It” the speaker is moved to tears and haunted by the names on the Vietnam Memorial. Both express lingering grief, remorse, and the inability to escape painful memories.
