Fall of Saigon

“The roof of 22 Gia Long Street, April 29, 1975. An Air America UH-1 lifts off as a line of evacuees climbs a wobbling wooden ladder. Foreground shows a CIA officer pulling a Vietnamese woman up the last rung; midground reveals dozens more crowded on the rooftop in tropical rain; the lights of Saigon spread to the river, smoke rising from the southern outskirts.”
