The CIA's Forgotten Soldiers - Ethnic Hmong women return from the jungle with baskets full of roots to be eaten in the Vientiane province of Laos on 28 November 2007. Thousands of Hmongs who fought or collaborated with the American CIA until communists took over the country in 1975 remain hidden in the jungles of Laos and are regular targets of the Lao People's Army.
