Adopted Vietnamese Orphan Joins Nellis Family
Kim Yen Sue, a one year old Vietnamese orphan, was adopted by Capt. David L. Elliott and his wife Betty after a long process involving the Catholic Relief Service and various Viet Nam authorities. The couple, living near Nellis Air Force Base, faced bureaucratic delays but secured the child’s departure to the United States in a cardboard box bassinet.
