Father Joe Devlin was one of the three American Jesuits during the Vietnam War that went to Vietnam and helped the refugees.[citation needed] He was important in securing the passage of several thousand Cambodian refugees to America.[citation needed] He built an orphanage in Thailand which housed, fed, and schooled several hundred abandoned children.[citation needed]
After his death, Father Joe's brother wrote his biography which he entitled "Cha".[1]
