Recipient of the 2007 Women of Vision for Leadership. Born in Saigon, South Vietnam, in 1962, she fled to the U.S. with no father and a family of nine in 1975, eventually settling in Houston. Although Le knew no English on her arrival, she mastered the language fast enough to graduate from Alief Hastings High School at 16 as Valedictorian of her class of 335 students. In 1976, she received her first recognition in the US as 'Citizen of the Month' from Kiwanis International Club. In 1981, Houston Chronicle featured her as 'Scholastic Wonder', and Duy-Loan also received commendation from The Office of The Ambassador of The Royal Netherlands for her scholastic achievement and her humanitarian effort in fund raising to aid the Vietnamese refugees. She participates in numerous charity and fund raising projects for colleges, orphanages, and charity foundations. Duy-Loan serves on the Board of two non-profit organizations which promote education and support social economic development projects in the third world. Duy-Loan has worked to advance education and learning conditions in Vietnam. She believes that by doing so, the environment for learning will produce more students who will be able to improve the overall state of Vietnam. She recently achieved her longtime dream of bringing soundly-built school facilities to rural Vietnam with the opening of Thanh Thoi B—a schoolhouse accommodating 120 elementary-age students—whose construction she played a leadership role in implementing. Her dream is to raise enough money to build 100 schools in five years. This activity complements well her similar effort in 10 other countries.

Duy-Loan's service to the community includes: * United Way, Vietnamese Culture & Science Associations sponsored projects, and taught Junior Achievement for many years. * Director of Mona Foundation, promoting education and supporting social economic development in 10 countries including Nur University and Barli Vocational Institute for Rural Women in Indore[1] * Founding member and Advisory Board Director for Sunflower mission bringing educational assistance to Vietnam. * Founding member and Honorary Board Director for Science National Honor Society, promoting math and science at high schools. * ECE Visiting committee for The University of Texas College of Engineering. * Serving on University of Texas (UT) Commission 125, shaping UTs educational future for the next 25 years. * An invited speaker nationwide (many Universities, IEEE, WITI, etc)

The Bell Helicopter UH-1 Iroquois, commonly (or officially in the United States Marine Corps) known as the "Huey", is a multipurpose military helicopter, famous for its use in the Vietnam War. The UH-1 was developed from 1955 US Army trials with the Bell Model 204. The initial designation of HU-1 (helicopter utility) led to its nickname, Huey. The nickname became so popular that Bell started putting the Huey name on the anti-torque pedals. The aircraft was first used by the military in 1959 and went into tri-service production in 1962 as the UH-1. The last were produced in 1976 with more than 16,000 made in total, of which about 7,000 saw use during the Vietnam War. In Vietnam, 2,202 Huey pilots were killed and approximately 2,500 aircraft were lost, roughly half to combat and the rest to operational accidents.
