There are many examples of such familygrams on the Internet dating from the Vietnam war and earlier. The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War, or the Vietnam Conflict, occurred in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia
The term is also used colloquially by families wishing to communicate news to friends and extended family via printed or email newsletters.
