    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Raymond T. Baza recounts his experiences processing the first group of  7,000  refugees from Vietnam, about five or six hundred &quot;Operation Baby Lift&quot; infants, to a camp in Guam, an unincorporated and organized territory of the United States which temporarily hosted 100,000 Vietnamese in 1975. Baza, who identifies as Chamorro, was drafted into the Unites States Army, first as a mechanic and later in an advisory capacity in what he describes as  Psychological Operations for  Army Intelligence. He married a Vietnamese woman who rescued him from being captured in Vietnam and assisted him with his injuries. He discusses the resettlement of the refugees; some left the island to countries like the United States through Operation New Life, some settled on the island and some returned to Vietnam. Raymond also discusses the previous generation&#039;s experiences during the occupation of the island by Japan during WWII and how the Chamorros, the native peoples of the island, accepted the new arrivals from Vietnam. The people of Guam had the highest per capita deaths in Vietnam. <br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Father Michael Nam Nguyen describes his experiences living in a Catholic community under communist rule during the aftermath of the Fall of Saigon. His family escaped by boat to a refugee camp in Malaysia before being resettled in the United States. He recalls the culture shock of coming in to a public school system as a teenager and the choice he made to enter the seminary instead of following a career in football. He also describes the destruction to his ethnic community and parish caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and his current work leading a parish as the sole pastor in a mainstream Catholic church. Even so, he is still tied to the Vietnamese community and regularly attends weddings, funerals and holiday celebrations. <br />
