The Hmong Minnesota Veterans of the Secret War Preservation Project
This Preservation Project is a humanitarian effort: to preserve, document, and record the last surviving stories of Hmong veterans and their widows from the CIA-backed clandestine paramilitary operation in Laos from 1961-1975. This was known as the Secret War, a part of the Vietnam War. Our history has been part of Minnesota’s story since 1975. An estimated 4,500 Hmong veterans and widows live in Minnesota (2004). Only a few of their personal experiences are documented for research purposes, general public use, or family collections. The Project will gather, preserve, and share the legacies of about 30 individuals; enriching the historical record and Hmong identity.
These veterans, widows, and orphans took part of this Project to share and preserve their stories, and twenty-one (21) stories have been transcribed into English and are available at the SGU office for research and documentation purposes.
Project duration: June 2022-December 2023
