Fourteen of the 15 had been convicted of a crime, the Homeland Security Department confirmed late Thursday.

Du Hua was just 7 years old when I left Vietnam. I never met him until, recently when I read his book and then spoke with him on the phone.

After a 15-hour flight, we landed at Travis Air Force Base, California, at about 10:00 AM, September 19, 1967. Because of the International Date Line, my flight, by local times, was a matter of minutes.   Continue reading “The Escapes – And My Journey to Freedom – A Review”

We received the following from Misty’s husband:

Dear friends and acquaintances,

I am reaching out to you all for prayers and thoughts for my wife, Misty. She is a warrior for life, love and our family. We just found out she has to have her left kidney removed due to a genetic defect that has caused massive swelling. The Ureteropelvic Junction (UPJ) blockage is caused by a genetic defect that makes the muscle at the junction of the ureter and kidney to contract and not let go. This has destroyed the kidney and the swelling started to effect her health otherwise. Her right kidney has a genetic defect known as “sponge kidney” but it can be lived with okay as long as we take simple measures for it’s health.   Continue reading “Prayers for Misty”
