Join us on Veterans Day, November 11th to hear the incredible story of South Vietnamese Army “Commando” Veteran Huong Hoang.

 

Mr. Sid’s Video Series and Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 18 invite the community to a special Veteran’s Day program entitled “COMMANDO.”

 

Huong and his wife Dao experienced the Division of their Country in 1954, leaving their village in the North and fleeing to the South where Huong was recruited into a top-secret Commando Unit formed to spy on the North.
