Personally this was a great year for me as this was the year I started kindergarten. I have any memories of Kindergarten but none were of the Vietnam. I was too young and sheltered to remember the fall of Saigon. Yet, this would later have and impact on my life. For another great person in my life, was Billy. He was a few grades younger then me. Yet he and all of his adopted family attended the same High School. In 1975 he was one of the last children to get out of Saigon. He was the son of a soldier, and his mother Vietnamese. He remembers flying out of Vietnam as Saigon fell. He had to learn English when he got here.
I arranged for him to visit me at Villanova. He had such a great time that he not only attended but went on to become my little brother in my fraternity. Such an amazing guy and an incredible story of overcoming the odds to put history behind him.
