Lone Star Flight Museum is proud to present NICK TRAN and his powerful firsthand account of his family’s escape from Saigon on April 30, 1975.

Tran escaped a war-torn country as a toddler, and he and his family survived three days adrift at sea, before experiencing life in a refugee camp. Tran’s enlistment in the Army as a teen was driven by a sense of duty and a desire to repay the sacrifices of Vietnam Veterans and the country that welcomed his family.

Nick Tran is an U.S. Veteran of Operation Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, and Iraqi Freedom. A Harvard Business School graduate, he spent 12 years in the energy industry, leading the #1 veteran employer program in the U.S. for Schlumberger LTD.

Register to attend his riveting first hand account, only at Lone Star Flight Museum!

Registration for the event reserves your seat for the talk; it does not include a museum admission ticket.  Members receive free museum admission; all others must purchase museum admission.
