@9:27 on the other side of that little hill is where my old house is at. I remember there is also a cave right on the other side due to our house being right in front of the cave, and at night you can see it plate of rock that looks like a door to the cave glow in the moonlight. If you look at it, it looks like a man on a horse holding a sword, which leads to much folklore... On top of that little hill behind your truck is stationed a machine gun on top. I remember one night seeing the gun being fired and you could see a stray of bullets flying... Seeing this seems so unreal that once I used to live there as a kid and use to sit by the police station and watch those T28 fly in and out with my sister.
Great video Todd and the addition of the historic documentary videos was spot on. I'm sadden by what horror the Laotian people endured. There resilience is inspiring in spite of this horrid war.
An extremely interesting, sad and moving video Todd.......well it's not just a video but a fine documentary & I for one can't wait to see the next part. 👍👍👍
You have to take your hat off to the Asian people they have been kicked in the guts all their lives , but , look how happy they are , GOD bless em I say ,
Would love to see this place in person one of these days. What a beautiful place with such a interesting history. It’s crazy that a little place like this in the middle of no where changed so many peoples’ lives and altered the future of so many more lives of people who weren’t even born yet.
That was a wonderful and well thought through video, Todd Some current day wandering and history combined together. I learnt something… so thank you and I appreciate your effort :-)
Last year I was part of a motorcycle group touring N Laos, it included visiting the airstrip where you drove along, quiet, not many people around. We did a demo formation ride up and down the strip. Then rode up the high land above for a better view and get some photos. Also we visited a radar station not far away. Then later we visited the caves where the Hmong lived under ground for many years.
This was a great video. This should also be your next business. You could put this history firmly on the backpacker tourist map. Run some trips to this place. If you built it? People will come. Lol
Great video mate! What a surreal place, lot of history in those hills! Freshen up that air strip with some new blacktop and you have a very handy drag strip 👍
Thank you Tod and Neenee, Our longest building AAM's hostel was rightside of the end of runway.... many thanks by million to showing us...Great times in life....
A couple of years ago they would not grant access from the North or South mainly due to the mining project behind the royal compound which by the looks you visited briefly, to this day is still not accessible without a bit of smooth talking, these days even Vang Pao's house is open as a tourist point of interest and well as the once abandoned wat which is also opened up.
Great as always Todd Brings back memories of when I was there It is always interesting comparing then and when i visited to today Your room looked to be in good condition
@@NowinLao Todd u do good work and have great trips Seeing you donating all the stuff to help The people was something we did as well but more discretely as we had “ guides” with us constantly The vlogs are always well put together A lot of places bring back memories other are new and exciting to see Heck I even see your influence in NeeNee’s work Hope to get back to Vientiane to the restaurant
@@NowinLao still trying to find the plain of jars vlog though I would like to see how it has changed and if it is still blue yellow and orange from all the flags UXO had put We literally spent half a day single file at points while our guides were on point and tail end Charlie to make sure nothing happened
Not being negative but wow I’m not sure I could deal with the rain so often. Absolutely beautiful and love the narrative great job keep up the good work.
Thanks for filming this video and up load to your TH-cam channel, it bring back lots of the places that I lived there when I was young age especially north side elementary school but I did not see it on this video. From USA.
Todd- I’m Hmong and my Father fought in the war as a Child! This is so sad to heard about- but it truth- my father still til this day does not qualify for any of the benefit- I can go on and on. Love you Man- keep it up!
Great Job Todd!!! This is my favorite video as it covered little know information that most of the US does not know about, especially today. I have had friends that have fought in Vietnam and they spent a little time in Lao at the boarder. I wish some director would make a movie of the campaign that took place in Lao at the time of the Vietnam war? I worked with a retired B52 crew that did the last drop in that area before we pulled out. He was not happy with the orders but he had to complete the mission. When I visited Lao for the first time 15 years ago feel in love with the people and the culture. The Lao people are so resultant and forgiving and I have many Lao friends here in California. Thank you for bringing to light some past history that we can all learn from.
Thanks Todd one of your best mate! Enjoyed the history and how you related to today..was looking forward to this and I was not disappointed. Can’t wait for more…👍
You're certainly doing your homework. When NowInLaos starts guiding tours you're gonna be a local expert. I've often noticed expat Lao or their decendants from around the world commenting how much they appreciate seeing their hometown or their parents homeland. There seems even more than usual for this one, as well as veterans who were here. I was just loving getting to see your account of this beautiful place, but I'm realising how much bigger than that it is for some people. Pretty moving stuff actually! Good on ya 👍
Great video, my family was in Long Tieng before we eventually escaped into Thailand from Vientiane in the mid 70s. We are now in the great USA! Forever grateful for the Hmong and Americans who sacrificed during this campaign.
Great installment and essential to mix in some historical documentation to locate this place in history. Tragic--and criminal--circumstances aside for the moment, this is a jaw-droppingly beautiful place. Can't wait to get up there myself someday. Safe travels. Khop chai ly ly!
Hi Todd and Nee Nee. Thanks for this I had not seen this doco before although I knew about the history of Lao. The thing I find the hardest to understand is how there is no anger toward anyone even if they know you are an American. To bad the US southern states can't seem to leave their civil in the rear view mirror.
Been anticipating this one, I've never seen Long Cheng(Tieng) like this before. Very very interesting indeed, I do hope the LAOS government make this location into a true historical site. I would love to visit it one day. Yeah, the US government totally screwed the Hmoob people in this situation...so much so that only a small handful of Americas know who and what the Hmoob people are after sacrificing their sons/daughters to help America.
If only these grounds could talk!! I spent 15 months living in Long Tieng in 1970-71. Vang Pao ran the base but Vang Pao was fully controlled by the CIA. There was so much money being spent at Long Tieng, the CIA never fully accounted for the dollars spent.
Did Spooky “Puff the Magic Dragon” ever fly missions from Long Tieng? I had a good friend who was with them in Nam in 1970, but he did tell me he was sent to work inside Thailand on several secret missions. I wonder if he really meant Laos. He past away 6 years ago from agent orange poisoning, even though it was from so many years ago.
@@generalnguyenngocloan1700 Yes, Puff, which was the C-47 Gunship (AC-47) operated on a TDY out of Long Tieng. The AC-119 (Stinger) and the AC-119 Shadow, also operated out of Long Tieng in the early 70s. But only on very special missions. Those aircraft came from Phan Rang, AB, Vietnam and was only there on a TDY mission. Some gunships flew out of Udorn AB, Thailand but, again, only on special missions.
@@geneloscowski3070 The base was too small for large aircraft, even C-47's as there was not enough fuel storage or ammo storage for something like a gunship. It was CIA, not Air Force. It was there to support the Mhong who were fighting the NORTH VIETNAMESE who occupied huge amounts of Laos against all agreements, they were not fighting the Lao army or the Pathet Lao which was militarily insignificant compared to the NVA.
@@naowaratyooktanun2068 I'm sorry to disagree with you. The air strip at Long Tieng was large enough to land C-47s, although only a few landed there. I was there, I witnessed the landing of C-47s, and C-119s. The air strip also was an operating location for USAF rescue operations for northern Laos. I direct your attention to the flight operations manual for the C-47, which can land at minimum size runway. I was stationed at Long Tieng, so I do know the real facts about that location. Although the CIA had control of the base, it was used by the USAF for operations inside Laos. Long Tieng supported not only the Hmong but the Royal Lao Army. The base also supported offensive operations on the Ho Chi Ming supply route from North Vietnam to South Vietnam.
Would be good if they had some old aircraft from the Vietnam war and have them parked out on the tarmac. It could be a good tourist attraction. A F4, Mig 15, F-105 and T28 would be fitting as a display.
The U.S shouldn't have been there in the first place. They shoot, they bombed, they destroyed and left; leaving a life long suffering (both physical and war traumas) plus big messes for the country and the local people.
Awesome , very informative , as I can’t recall many documentaries on that area . So little is known of Laos past 🤔 and to see it as it is today is fascinating . I look forward to the next one Todd 😃👍🍺
Always makes me cry to think of the suffering endured here over that time and it’s legacy to this day. In Xieng Khouang I would fairly regularly hear explosions from the college where I worked; either from UXO Laos doing a scheduled explosion or from some child or civilian setting one off. “Bombies” are the size of tennis balls and if struck or jarred can explode, so they are a continuing danger there to children digging them up, farmers working the fields and to anyone doing construction. I knew of a father and young child who were killed in their own home when the heat from their fire set off a couple of cluster bomblets that were just under the surface of their floor. The tragedies relating to this war are not over.
It's true story,back to the 1971 I was living in long cheng the airplanes and the helicopters and also the T28 fighter plans was flying by hmong pilots landings and take off everyday now nothing just empty airstrip it's so sad to see all these,but it is just for memories
@@NowinLao Thank you! Keep us posted plz. By the way, my name is Leo and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. I tried to go visit Laos, my home country once a year. But haven’t been able to for 2 years now since the pandemic 😷 😷 I watched every episode of your shows by the way. Great Job!
I don't think that Long Cheng was America's proudest moment. It is our hope that the Laotian people of this village surrounding this airport will thrive again peacefully, no bombing. Thank you Todd for telling this story that needed to be told. LOL Harriet and Jim Richmond, Va.
Hi I was stationed at Udorn in 66-67 my office was just across the runway from Air America. One day all hell broke loose red flares were being shot from runway control and several security police vehicles went charging over to the other side. I flight of T28s landed and they had the markings of Laos. It turned out that some groups were have a in fight north of us and the losers' took off for greener pastures, US. They moved the planes to AA area and the next day we had a new group of T28s with Thai markings. The markings were on boards that could be switched around for which ever country you wanted them to belong. They came and went the rest of the time I was there.
Every time I watch a video about the history of my hmong people makes me saddened. So many lives been taken and families torn apart. This is the reason I end up in the USA

That was fantastic Todd. I loved the use of old footage mixed into your video. These poor people withstood a lot. Very sad. Cheers!!!
