He was found in 1992, but not entered until 2024. That's disappointing. I hope he is identified soon!

Is there a reconstruction for him?

Vietnamese name and so few of that ethnicity in the databases. Hopefully there's some good sleuths can do regular research. Are US immigration records online (noting most Vietnamese only migrated in the 70s and later)?
