“SPECIAL OPERATION”
__________

This Memorial honors U.S. allies during the Vietnam War in Southeast Asia. "We played a crucial role supporting American war in Vietnam," said Toufu Vang, a lieutenant colonel who served as a translator and cabinet chief to former Laotian General Vang Pao. "Our mission was to stop, harass, Vietnamese troops moving down into South Vietnam. We provided intelligence on communist troops' movement in Laos and on the border of Vietnam." — Kare11.com, 2015
