HONORING AUGUSTINO TRAN CAU
(Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of
my very good friend, Augustino Tran Cau, who passed away on June 7 in
Anaheim, California, at the age of 80.
Mr. Tran was a combat medic during the Vietnam war. Following the
fall of

South Vietnam in 1975, he was imprisoned in a political reeducation
camp in Vietnam, but eventually escaped and later settled in Orange
County, California, where he and his family built a new life and made
southern California their home for almost 50 years.
As a pharmacist, Mr. Tran dedicated his life to serving others
through healthcare. He was actively involved with the Vietnamese-
American community, advocating for democracy, freedom, and human rights
for Vietnam.
Augustino's legacy will live through his family. My thoughts and
prayers are with them during this time.
