February 4, 2020 In The News
Jason Hong was just 23 when he left his home in South Korea to join some 325,000 Korean soldiers who would fight as allies alongside American troops throughout the Vietnam War.

And those hearing problems have only worsened now that Hong is a 75-year-old American citizen living in Cerritos.
