Over twenty years ago Hoang Co Minh had a vision of a Vietnam that was at peace and that was worthy of the respect of the world. Although Admiral Minh has given his life in pursuit of this vision, his spirit as well as his dream still lives within the generation before me, and it still lives within me. I hope that other Vietnamese youths around the world will also share Admiral Minh’s dream and will act in some way to see that this dream becomes a reality.
