As a direct result of a Democrat-controlled U.S. Congress cutting off of funds for the then Free South Vietnamese to continue fighting for their own Freedom ...a 10 year old Cub Scout named Van Tran and his family had to quickly board an American C-130 Air Transport plane bound for Freedom abroad ...six days before the Fall of Saigon in April 1975. He spoke just 2 words of English at the time.

That sounds like the story of a friend of mine, he was in his teens when we pulled the plug, and was fortunate to get out. Once here, he busted his butt to learn English and work his way through college, and is an electrical engineer now. I know he would agree with Mr. Van.

Oops. I meant Mr. Tran.
