26 May / A Sense of Duty: My Father, My American Journey by Quang X. Pham [in AsianWeek]

Sense of DutyA loving tribute, memoir-style, to the author’s father, a South Vietnamese pilot shot down during the Vietnam War and assumed dead. Pham and his mother begin a new life in the United States, where Pham eventually becomes a U.S. Marine pilot and comes to terms with the seemingly contradictory nature of true loyalty and duty to family.
