Mai, you may want to ask Mr. CHINH NGUYEN: loithanh01@yahoo.com

He was my father’s “boss” during the war. He may have more information about your father. Best of luck.

This may seem weird as we don’t know each other but I thought I’d give it a try: I’m looking for my dad, who was also a pilot for south Vietnam during the war. All I have is a name but I was wondering if your dad might have known him since they were both pilots. I would absolutely appreciate any help your father (and you) could give me in the search for my dad. Many thanks.

Forgive my crude response but Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1st, I didn’t realize you had this blog and I love it!
2nd, thank you for telling such an amazing story.

My uncle served in Vietnam and has many scars to show for it, visible and invisible. What I do know is that he was in covert ops and at least once was dropped behind “enemy lines”, alone, on recon…..He survived and is still surviving today, for which I’m eternally grateful. It is for men like you father than my uncle served. Nuff said. Thanks Mina!
