I had the pleasure in interview the known American war journalist Jim Laurie. Jim went to Cambodia and Vietnam, during the Vietnam war. He was in Phnom Penh on the 12th april 1975, when the last American helicopters took off from the US Embassy ( Operation Eagle Pull ), and he stayed behind in Saigon when it felt on the 30th april 1975 ( Operation Frequent Wind ). Later he came back to Vietnam and Cambodia in 1979, and saw what the Khemer Rouge did to its own people. In 1982, he was among the first journalist that met the amerasians in the streets of Saigon, now renamed Ho Chi Minh city.. Jim footages of the amerasians from that time, are unique and mindblowing for people like me that had been part of the amerasian issue since 1992, and a window to the past. Me and Jim could talk for hours, he´s such a amazing storyteller and I hope we had time for a future interview. Corrections: The film with Saigon amerasians are from 1985, when Jim met them again. I mention Jim left Saigon on the 30th april 1975, it was a mistake, he left 26 may 1975. For more informations about Jim and hes life: http://www.jimlaurie.com
