Description

our age it was probably one of the biggest events in modern history. The war was ended in 1975, but tragically the second war started, only this time it was an economic war. The Trade Union movement of Australia thought the people of Vietnam had suffered enough. They ignored the American embargo (as did most of Europe) and tried to help rebuild this war-torn country. Max, with his trade union background, became (very happily) involved in the breaking of the embargo. With the generous help of the Maritime Union of Australia, ordinary people were able to help this wonderful country begin to rebuild itself.

On their first trip to Vietnam in 1990, Max and Mado continued to break the embargo by delivering a large supply of medicines donated by a very kind doctor in Australia to Bach Mai Hospital in Ha Noi. Whilst there, an eyewitness told of the terrible Christmas bombings in 1972 that resulted in the death of 64 "innocents" ....... patients & staff . All were unarmed civilians .

This was the 2nd time that year that Bach Mai hospital had been bombed & on both occasions it was claimed to be an accident.
