... My dad was an officer in the South Vietnamese Army and served proudly alongside US Special Forces. He was a Captain in Green Beret and was part of the Special Operations Group . His missions were to go deep into the enemy
territories to gather intelligence.
... kind of tough to get around that one. According to my sister Carolyn, just before I fainted while waiting to be rescued, a young soldier walked over and took our water. My sister who was still on the barge, looked at
our father who was part of the security parameters, he looked away. The man slowly picked the water container up and started to turn the cap to take a drink. She looked at our father again, and again he looked away.
Suddenly she understood! She knew then our father would not risk his life for a few sips of water while the rescue ship was there. It's because we were at a very chaotic time, a lawless place where almost everyone was hungry and thirsty, and all soldiers with their weapons on them.
My sister took charge! She pointed at the man and screamed: "Hey man, put that water down. Put that down. That is my water." He continued to about take a drink. My sister did not care, she knew that he was a grown up man
and she was just a little kid. She screamed louder, demanding the man to put down the precious water. Because she screamed so loud, everyone was looking at her and the man. At that time he knew that he could not be a bully with a kid in front of thousands of people. He said "OK, OK, gee, take it easy!" and put the water container down. She jumped down and got
the container back. At that time I fainted. My other sisters Diane and Mary cried out. Carolyn ran over, picked me up and screamed even louder, "my brother, please help us, he is dying!" Our father heard that and jumped down. People tried to stop him because only women and children were to allow to be there to be rescued first. He cried and pushed them away
while yelled out for help. The security commander on the ship through the loud speaker ordered people to let our father go up the ship with me in arms...
Thanks. Carolyn Hoang,
