Louisville Family Focus of Vietnam War Documentary on KET

The debate about pulling out of Iraq has an eerie and haunting echo for Doan Hoang and her family in Louisville.
Thirty-three years ago last week, they were on the last American helicopter out of Vietnam on the final day of the war in that country. They eventually found their way to Louisville.
Tonight Hoang relives that nightmare, reflects on coming to America and takes her family back to Vietnam on a journey full of good and bad memories.
"Oh Saigon" is at 10 on KET2. It is a sensitive, engaging and at times painfully revealing story about what happens to people long after the guns of war go silent.
