title: Marvin J. Wolf, Capturing the Essence of War

description: [profile bio] Marvin J. Wolf was born in the summer of 1941 in Chicago, Illinois. He was a salesman before enlisting and serving in the Vietnam War. He deployed with the advance party of the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) in August 1965. He was a PFC combat correspondent in the Division Public Information Office. As a combat photojournalist, Marvin accomplished numerous duties. He was once sent aloft in a helicopter to take pictures of the landscape, so that the Special Forces Photo Lab can create an aerial map from his photos. He and others performed the clearing exercise, Operation Golf Course, and created the world's largest helicopter landing field, large enough to disperse more than 400 aircraft, with only hand tools in An Khe. After deploying, Marvin gained experience in the field as a combat photographer and reporter for the next several months. He was once wounded by a shrapnel, but not seriously. When his comrade, Specialist Four Joe Treaster, left after completing his service, Marvin got his job as the chief combat correspondent. He was also promoted to sergeant, and his duties included reporting, photographing, and escorting visiting journalists. In this way, he met and worked with the cream of the international press corps. Near the end of his tour, he spent a week escorting the famed military writer, Brigadier General S.L.A. Marshall, and another week escorting the Nobel laureate, John Steinbeck. In November 1966, he became one of only 60 U.S. soldiers and marines to be commissioned as a second lieutenant (Infantry) directly from the ranks. The remaining 59 were Special Forces sergeants and warrant officer helicopter pilots. He left Vietnam ten days after his commission was awarded, and returned only in 2005 as a tourist. With his experience as a writer, Marvin co-authored and wrote multiple books such as Abandoned in Hell: The Fight For Vietnam's Firebase Kate and Buddha's Child: My Fight to Save Vietnam. He resides in California as of today. [profiler bio] The profilers are all students at the University of Southern California. Michael Bachurski is a freshman majoring in Media Arts and Practice.

title: Andy Ngo, My Mom Was Part Of The Killing Fields

description: [profile bio] Andy Ngo was born on December 3, 1992, and grew up in San Jose, California. Although he does not have any direct experience with the Vietnam War, both of his parents lived through the war and were refugees. Andy's mother is originally from Phnom Penh, Cambodia which was the site of the secret bombing missions by the United States government, while Andy's father is from Saigon, Vietnam. Growing up, Andy's parents were always open to talk to him about their experiences inside the re-education camps, both in Cambodia and Vietnam, and what it was like when they escaped to Thailand. Because of his unique indirect experience, Andy provides valuable insight as to how some of the first generation Vietnamese-Americans perceive the war. Andy is currently a senior at the University of Southern California and hopes to one day become a doctor.

title: Mai Nguyen, They Killed Our Country

description: [profile bio] Mai Nguyen is a survivor of the American War in Vietnam with a unique perspective and a compelling story. Ms. Nguyen was born in 1957 and lived in Saigon, Vietnam until her escape in 1980. Ms. Nguyen and her family were South Vietnamese who witnessed the American military influence and considered them a good symbol to keep Vietnam intact from communism. After the fall of Saigon in 1975, Ms. Nguyen witnessed first hand the oppression brought by communism and the elimination of freedom. In 1980 she decided to escape with her baby boy to international waters. However, in her escape, she became part of what is called the "boat people" and she encountered a hard and arduous journey. Pirates held up her boat various times, people around her were mugged, raped, and beatenâ€”fortunately her strong will and faith in God saved her. Upon docking she arrived in Thailand as a refugee. Later, she moved to Canada, opened two successful restaurants and has been an anti-communist activist for the Vietnamese Community ever since. Ms. Nguyen later immigrated to the United States and her transition was also not easy. However, after confronting hardships in America she finally found peace. Mai Nguyen now resides in a beautiful neighborhood in Anaheim, California having raised two successful children. [profiler bio] Joseph Donaway is a senior majoring in psychology.

title: Digitalization of MSME Financial Records: The Foundation of Innovation and Sustainable Industrialization in Indonesia

description: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) represent a foundational component of the Indonesian economy, contributing in excess of 60% to the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and employing nearly 97% of the labor force. However, the majority of MSMEs still face challenges in efficient financial management due to error-prone manual records. Digitalization of financial records through accounting information systems is an important solution to improve efficiency, transparency, and access to formal financial services. This article examines the role of digitizing MSME financial records in supporting innovation and sustainable industrialization in accordance with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9, which focuses on building resilient infrastructure, inclusive industrialization, and innovation. Using a literature review method, this article finds that digitization can increase MSME productivity by up to 35%, accelerate access to formal financing, and support data-driven decision-making. However, challenges such as low digital literacy and uneven internet infrastructure are still major obstacles. This article recommends digital literacy training, government support, and the development of affordable accounting applications as strategic steps to accelerate the digital transformation of MSMEs in Indonesia.

title: Stephanie Truong, What My Parents Saw

description: [profile bio] Stephanie Truong is a junior student currently attending the USC School of Architecture. She is an American-Vietnamese second-generation daughter of two Vietnamese war refugees who found their way out of Vietnam in the early 70's when they were in their teens. Her mother was born in the city while her dad was from a village, both of them from South Vietnam. Stephanie explained how her parents escaped from Vietnam. Her mother boarded a ship to Thailand and was in a camp there while her dad escaped in a fish boat in the middle of the night. He spent 2 weeks in the boat and struggled for food and water and saw people died. He ended up his journey in a refugee camp in Thailand as well. Both of her parents were sponsored by families who helped them come to America. They settled their new life in the United States and years later Stephanie was born. Stephanie is a great example because as a second-generation child she recognizes the sacrifice that her parents did to escape the war that could have cost their lives if they stayed in Vietnam. She feels proud of them and as an American-Vietnamese she wants to share her parents' experiences with future generations as well as her personal perspective towards the war and how it was taught to her in American schools.
