I posted a copy of his Autobiography here, lest that obscure German website go offline ...
https://www.cathinfo.com/the-library/autobiography-of-archbishop-thuc/

There's amazing stuff in there, including about how his family were martyred under the Communists, and his one brother was double-crossed, told he'd be taken by America but then delivered right into the hands of the same Vietnamese who had killed the rest of his family.  He was flushed out of hiding with promises of help by a "Catholic" American consul.

That was a good idea to post it here. Looking forward to reading it. Thank you Ladislaus.

Thanks for the great picture.  I knew someone who served Mass regularly for Archbishop Thuc while he was with +Vezelis, and he said that the Archbishop (in addition to being very kind and humble) offered Mass very devoutly, and that comes across in this picture.

Thank you so very much!  :cowboy:
Actually, this book cnannot be recommended. It is a work of calumny against Bishop Thuc. The author is an Anglican "priest" of sorts who is not a friend of the Catholic Church. Avoid at all costs.
 The autobiography already mentioned is what can be recommended for the truth.
God bless you.

I wondered about that.  Thank you. It seems one cannot get away from the Thuc calumniators.
