The Hmong were the hill people of Laos and helped Americans in the Vietnam war. When Vietnam fell to the communist they were persecuted, so the United States offered them a place to come to for their help. Several million Hmong have come to the United States to start new lives because it isn’t safe to live in Laos.

The surname Saechao is of Hmong origin. The Hmong people are an ethnic group from the mountainous regions of China, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. Saechao is a common surname among the Hmong community, particularly in Laos and the United States.
The U.S. recruited Hmong soldiers during the Vietnam War primarily to combat the spread of communism in Southeast Asia, particularly in Laos, where the Hmong were facing the Pathet Lao and North Vietnamese forces. The Hmong, skilled in guerrilla warfare and familiar with the mountainous terrain, were viewed as valuable allies. The CIA organized and trained these fighters under a covert operation known as the "Secret War," aiming to disrupt enemy supply lines and gather intelligence. This alliance also aimed to secure a foothold against communism in the region, leveraging local knowledge and support.
Because the US lost the Vietnam War and during the War the Hmong people had to sacrifice their lives to save American lives. That's why the came to America, to get away from the communist or they would be killed.
