Dear AII POW-MIA

I would be most pleased if you would share it around. That way you would help to pass my thanks more widely to the fine men and women of the American army who served in Vietnam.

Sincerely
Quynh Dao

My name is Quynh Dao and I am a Vietnamese Australian. I came to Australia as a refugee after Vietnam fell into the hand of the communists .

May I forward to you, former Vietnam war veterans and family of former Vietnam war veterans, my heartfelt thanks and my deepest gratitude. I would like you to know that freedom loving Vietnamese around the world hold you very dear in our heart. You have sacrificed your safety, your happiness, your youth and many of your brothers had sacrificed their lives to help South Vietnam preserve freedom and democracy, albeit a fledgling democracy in our part of the country. The propaganda machine in the media in the West had distorted your presence in South Vietnam , but we, those who know of the hardship that you bore and the sacrifice you made see you as our heroes. Thanks to you, myself and 17 millions people of the South could live in relative peace and freedom, free from communist indoctrination and oppression for two decades.

The recent erection of a memorial with the statues of an American soldier and a South Vietnam Army soldier standing side by side in Westminster, California, is our way to say thank you to you and our own freedom fighters. Recent similar memorials had been erected in South Australia to commemorate your ally during the Vietnam War in Australia.

May I share with you the pain of having to bear the indelible scar of the dreadful time you spent in communist prisons. May I forward my heartfelt sympathy to those of you having yet no news from your dear ones. May time help to heal your pain. May God bless you with peace and take away your sadness. Again, please accept my thanks.

Sincerely

Quynh Dao
Australia"
