Labor Camps Map—These locations are where I labored under the Black Uniforms. Most of the four-year period, I was confined to a four-mile area in the vicinity of French Village. (Adapted from National Geographic MapMaker Interactive by K. W. Laux, 2017.)

Flight to Freedom Map—After multiple escape attempts over a five-month period, Em, Chenda, and I arrived at Nong Chan Refugee Camp and were finally free. (Adapted from National Geographic MapMaker Interactive by K. W. Laux, 2017.)

Overview Map—My family moved from Battambang City to Poipet for a quick exit to Thailand should the Khmer Rouge take over Cambodia.
