Madam Speaker. I rise today to honor Nghia Van Dong for his service during the Vietnam War. Nghia Van Dong was born in Hai Phong. Viet Nam. during the end of the Indochina War. Following the Geneva Conventions which brought the conflict to a resolution. Mr. Dong joined fellow refugees in repatriating to the Republic of South Viet Nam. This trip would prove fruitful. as Mr. Dong met his future wife Hanh on the ship which carried him to Saigon. At the start of the Viet Nam War. Nghia Van Dong knew that his country needed him. He quickly signed up to help with the war effort. and was assigned to the U.S.
