Vietnam Babylift Personal Stories


Thao Dao


My name is Thao Dao and I am an Ameritian from Vietnam. I was born in 1965. Following my birth I was taken to an orphanage where I resided for 5 years. I have 2 brothers. A younger brother born 1967 whose name is (was) Ngoc Dao, and also an older brother born 1963 whose name is (was) Minh Dao.

During the Operation Babylift, my older brother Minh Dao was taken. Last information I received leads me to believe he is somewhere in the USA - possibly New York City. It is been 30 years since I saw my brother. I currently reside in the US - Florida, and I've spent the last 15 years trying to locate Minh Dao.

I'm contacting you with the hope that you might have resources available to assist me in my search for my brother.

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Mr. Tao Dao
