MARCH 21 2:50 PM (ALASKA) VIDEO OVERVIEW OF 2024 TRIP

I am pleased to share with you a video, created by Hearts for Hue, of my 2024 Vietnam humanitarian trip. It was a most successful "helping & healing" mission.  It is your support that makes it happen, folks. Thank you!!!! Neil

MARCH 9 245 PM (ALASKA) PERFUME RIVER & HUE AT NIGHT

Image
The Perfume River corridor is really beautiful at night. In these photos, my hotel is on the far side of the Perfume and with Hearts for Hue on the near side. So, I walk across the bridge often. Floating Restaurant

MARCH 6 1100 (ALASKA) BRIEF UPDATE ON DUONG

Image
As described in a Feb 24 post, Duong is very ill with cancer. He served in 2nd Platoon Co A 3rd/21st Infantry 196th Light Infantry Brigade, as did I. Having lost both legs in combat, his life has been quite a struggle. But, we have been helping him for years...a hand-driven cart, a concrete path, remodeling of his house, a well, a TV, a rice cooker, a water kettle, food, and more. At my request, Thong has been attempting to reach Duong via phone, with no success. Thua, another 196th Infantry veteran, lives but a short distance from Duong and might be an alternate source of information. Thong will continue his effort to follow Duong's situation.  Neil Duong and Son Jan 31, 2024

MARCH 6 10:15 AM (ALASKA) ALMOST THERE!

Image
My goodness, this laptop file restoration has been a drawn-out endeavor. However, the process shows to be 100% and I expect a call-back from Carbonite today. My fingers are crossed. Hopefully, I'll have access to photos from the last few days (pre-crash) in Vietnam and will be able to share them with you. I apologize for the lengthy delay.  I bought an iPad and will have a back-up next time.  Thanks again for your support and your interest in helping and healing in Vietnam. YOU are making a huge difference.  Neil
