From the archives: Hmong vets honored decades after Vietnam War | 75th Anniversary

Following the withdrawal of U.S. troops in Vietnam, a large number of Vietnamese, Cambodians, Lao, and Hmong people sought refuge in the United States. In 1975, Hmong refugees began to move to Minnesota. As of October 2023, Minnesota has 95,094 Hmong people, with more than half living in Ramsey County.

Here's a look back at some of the coverage WCCO has done over the years recognizing the contributions and sacrifices Hmong soldiers from Minnesota made following the forgotten war in Laos during the Vietnam War.
