A four-year Navy veteran, Ngoc Hoan Truong, spent four years in the U.S. Navy and served on the USS John S. McCain. He helped design the flag that is currently flying on the USS BARRY. He was also musically talented, and played the piano and flute.

He left the Navy in October to pursue a different career by taking a graphic design course at a school in Florida. Unfortunately, he died of leukemia at the age of 22 on Dec. 17 at UAMS Hospital in Little Rock, Arkansas. To add more to the tragedy, his Vietnamese mother applied for a U.S. visa twice but was denied both times and she ended up missing the funeral of her own son.
