Theater Thursday

45 Years After the War, Their Bond is Truly Unbroken

In the deadly jungles of Vietnam, the Navy SEALs forged an enduring bond of friendship with their Vietnamese combat interpreter. Through brutal firefights and nighttime ambushes, Nguyen Hoang Minh fought as a member of the SEAL platoons in the Mekong Delta, and helped keep them alive. Though wounded numerous times, he never backed down or gave up the fight, and the SEALs began to feel that Minh was “one of us.”

When the Communists overran Vietnam, Minh could not get out, and the SEALs’ brave comrade was lost to them forever–or so they thought–until one Navy lieutenant’s relentless search found him. A Bond Unbroken captures their miracle reunion forty-five years in the making, and presents another side of the battle-tough, covert warrior SEALs. Their actions change Minh’s life and dramatically impact his family and the Vietnamese-American community.
