Episode Description
Madame Duong Van Khang recalls being allowed to participate on an attack of the French military. Her job consisted of helping move soldiers safely to a place where they would be able to attack the enemy and then safely guide them home. Madame Duong Van Khang also describes gathering intelligence on the French and passing the information along to the appropriate people. She explains the different disguises she used in order to complete her tasks. Additionally, Madame Duong Van Khang talks about the experiences of having to grow hemp for the Japanese instead of rice, and the suffering people experienced due to not having the land available to grow food.
