After The Fall of South Vietnam, both the southerners and northerners differentiate between helpers and deceivers:
Americans arrived in South Vietnam to help as they had done in Japan and West Germany after WWII; the great majority of Vietnamese people appreciate 58,276 US soldiers who sacrificed their lives and other Americans who contributed valuable help in the years from 1954-1975. Contrarily, the communists from the North, with deceitful slogans like "Let us fight Americans to recue our country" and "Nothing is precious than freedom", and so on are deceivers. Additionally, the Vietnamese felt miserable in the stringent dictatorship of the communists, so millions of them risked their lives to escape; at least 300,000 died on the East Sea or in the forests.- - - - -The Vietnamese refugees (escapees, former officials and officers from prisons or labor camps of the communists) appreciate all countries that welcome and help them and their families rebuild their lives; they have better lives now. The United States of America received the majority of Vietnamese refugees. Most of them have overcome difficulties and procured successes in different fields, especially in business and public health careers.Other Books Written by Prudence Han Tranduc: Women Victims of Wars, The Clan Divided, Solving the Adversities
