I’m very glad that you appreciate the situation.
A debt of honor.

Nguyen shuffled to his feet from his wheelchair, straightened his jacket as he looked at Jacobs, and, with a trembling right hand, he saluted. What's this watery stuff coming out of my eyes?!

I wonder why so many want to come so such an “awful” country???
To: DUMBGRUNT
I don’t often click links to read the whole story. Especially a CNN link. I’m glad I did this one.
To: DUMBGRUNT
I’m asking myself “Why is this wonderful story coming from CNN?”
And “Why now?”
Because CNN is in the business of narrative management for those
directing the heinous actions of the PedoDementoCorruptoCrat
administration.
Guess what. The folks the recent intentional “follies” will now be bringing
here in droves, are nothing like Nguyen and his family.
But you are supposed to think they are.

The Fall of Saigon had infinitely more grace and dignity than anything we are seeing today in Biden’s Afghanistan.
To: DUMBGRUNT
That’s a great story.
Sadly, there are many people nowadays who were born and lived in the U.S. their entire lives; who have alot of disdain for this country. We need less of those folks, and more people like Nguyen.

This country as a whole, had a lot more grace in 1975, but that was when the Radical Democrats started doing their damage.

I remember the film of the VNAF pilot who did something similar to this with a Huey, but had never heard of this story.

That is incredible.
My wife’s mother escaped what became North Korea. Used to love her stories. Many she wouldn’t tell completely and the are lost with her.

Exactly. CNN says get ready to accept thousands of Afghan’s into your community and they’ll be just like the South Vietnamese.
To: DUMBGRUNT
I miss this kind of reporting by CNN.
