PAO KUE Family, friends, comrades honor Hmong war veteran By Neil Rhines Herald Times Reporter MANITOWOC-Pao Kue of Manitowoc was 61 when he passed away last week; ironically, it was in 1961 that he began fighting for the United States in the Secret War in Laos. More than 100 people form Manitowoc, the Twin Cities, Detroit, Illinois and other locals attended a wake for Kue on Friday at Pfeffer Funeral Home in Manitowoc. Mourners include his wife Sxia Vang, their 10 children, as well as Kue's brothers and former commander in the Secret War, Victor Hang. According to the Central Intelligence Agency, the number of the Hmong army steadily grew in the early 1960s, soldiers in the Secret War. These fighters "acted as guerrillas, blowing up NVA (North Vietnamese Army) supply depots, ambushing trucks, mining roads, and generally harassing the stronger enemy force." Kue's commander at the time of the incident, Hang said (through translator, Kue's brother, Ger) that it was during very heavy fighting near enemy territory in 1965 or 1966 when Kue lost half his leg. The information they carried: How to cut off the supply train to the Viet Cong. Two American and two Laotian jets laid down suppressive fire as a Kue was rescued on a helicopter. Kue continued to serve, but not in battle. He, like his brother and fellow veteran "Yankee Station" Kue, and many others among the older men and women at the wake, spent - See VETERAN, A2 VETERAN From A1 years in refugee camps in Thailand, coming to America in the late 1970's. "When you look at the older generations, you see their scars...it's more than what us young people can comprehend," said 24-year old Kue Kue, the couples oldest son. " I cannot imagine going through that now." Kue, born in 1944, lived his first 35 years in a land of constant warfare. The French tried to tame the area, and failed, leaving in the mid-1950s; the Secret War, leading to the Vietnam war, followed shortly. Another of the couple's sons, Leng, a 22-year old graduate of Lincoln High School and member of the U.S. Navy, said coming home helps him realize that there are always people who remember, but they don't always talk about it. Kue fought for five years, but he kept most of those memories to himself, Leng said. Younger Kue, a sushi chef at a restaurant in the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minn., said he did ask his father some questions of his experiences like, "were you sacred?" "Yes," Kue said. "He was scared." Kue said his father always dreamed about going back to Laos, a country he didn't leave on a whim. Thirty years ago Saturday, the last, overloaded helicopter left the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, officially ending the Vietnam War. When the United States left Southeast Asia they left thousands of Hmong on their own to flee to Thailand, or stay and die at the hands of the Communist government. Years later when America opened its doors, thousand took the opportunity for a better life and joined the great melting pot. "Many don't understand," Kue said. "Our parents came here for a reason." In honor of Kue, and his love of his native country, a casket from Laos was imported for the burial. Also, several pieces of traditional Hmong needlework were arranged inside and out of the casket. "To help him on his journey," Kue said. Manitowoc Herald Times, Sunday, May 1, 2005 P. 2

SONG KUE Early Hmong leader dies. Song Kue was one of first to help immigrants settle in Sheboygan. By Kurt Rentmeester of the Press Staff He was a right-hand man in the Americanization of the first wave of Hmong immigrants in the 1970s when they arrived in Sheboygan. The only one of the initial seven Hmong to speak English on their arrival in April, 1976 through the U.S. Immigration Service, Song Kue took on the sometimes daunting task of leading his people in a community of German descent, said Don Leonard, a former local pastor who oversaw local sponsorship of the Hmong by families here. After a year-long battle with leukemia, Kue died earlier this week at the age of 44 in Minnesota, said Song Yang, executive director of the Hong Mutual Assistance Association of Sheboygan. Funeral services are being held over the course of several days at the Pfeffer Funeral Home in Manitowoc. “He was the point man. He was the interpreter—the number one guy for all Hong families in Sheboygan. They needed someone like Song (Kue) to communicate for them,” said Tom Witt, a former resident who has worked with Hmong families here. The number of Hmong swelled from that first seven to about 55 family members by July, 1976, he said. The rapid growth intensified the need for an interpreter. As a go-between for local residents and Hmong newcomers who didn’t have a spoken or written language of their own, Kue helped develop the Hmong community in Sheboygan. It’s now more than 3,000 people strong. Shortly after his arrival, Kue also pleaded with the public to help the Hmong families facing Communist oppression at camps in Thailand, Witt said. Local families were needed to mentor the Hmong and help them start a new life here. Song Kue said, “We need our families together here or they will die in Thailand refugee camps,” Witt said. Kue also placed a key role in the religious conversion of the Hmong said Witt who got to know Kue in 1979. Having been converted to Christianity by the Alliance of Christian Missionaries in his native Laos, Kue helped lead the religious conversion of the Hmong, Witt said. Kue helped with Bible every Sunday night at Trinity Lutheran Church. In February 1977, he and Leonard, who was pastor at Grace Haven Church at the time, brought several families together for a mass baptism. Eventually, Kue became the first Hmong to complete his education at the University of Wisconsin-Sheboygan and later got a degree in engineering. He had been employed by a Texas firm for four years, moving to Aurora, Ill., in 1986. “Song Kue was a role model for the Hmong,” Witt said. But Yang recalled that Kue retained close ties with family and friends in Sheboygan. Kue also touched the lives of several people, including Leonard, who now is a missionary stationed in the Philippines for Vernacular Video Mission International. “He was one of the reasons, one of the tremendous influences on me, that I resigned to be a missionary,” Leonard said. “This was the trigger that shot me out of the barrel.” Sheboygan Press, December 24, 2000 P. 1
